lose my faith in humanity..
the more i see, read, hear, and interact with humanity, the more selfish, greedy, hateful, uncaring, impatient, untolerant, and SELF CENTERED they seem...
Use to see random acts of kindness for others when i was growing up.
Use to see more friendlieness and patience..
Im not saying that these things dont still happen....just that they are getting alot fewer as time progresses....it is disheartining..

Sad to say, but it is so true. Alot of people these days seem to just not care about their fellow man. We live in the "What have you done for me lately" generation. It's all about "me". Me...me...me.

But dude, never lose yourself. Keep being nice to people. It isn't about them. It is about you being who you are.

What you say is true but I believe that if we all do our part in helping others and asking them to pay it forward, we can make a difference. Also parents have a responsibility to teach their children through example. It makes me proud when people come and tell me how my sons helped them. Maybe it is not too late to turn things around!

It's sad to see it all around us it's true-but you have to see some of the good too... Sometimes just saying" Hello-how are you" to a neighbor
may be bringing some happiness into someone's day...You gotta think of it that way flowerforyou

Often, what you display to others, they will display back to you.
