my pri sch teacher used to say that i'm nicer to animals than humans and i think he's right. i would never hesitate to help a baby or injured creature in need but somehow when it turns to people i have a really strong disliking for those are weak. i'm not talking about physical disabilities but rather, people who are weak in mind and character....and i think it is because when animals find themselves in difficulty, they are usually at the end of their tether and don't have a choice. humans do. there is a saying that if you want to be saved from drowning, you need to take the initiative to grab your rescuer's hand. my patrol leader once told me that when a person asks repeatedly about what route she should take to alleviate a difficult situation despite having been told the answer multiple times before, it is no longer a matter of not having a solution but rather, avoiding it because it seems unpleasant...the way a cure can sometimes be more painful than the disease. why, then, do you want to bemoan your fate when it is you yourself who is unwilling to overcome it?it is easy for us to blame the circumstances when we encounter an obstacle, but if the same problem happens once, twice, thrice over or even more, perhaps we should acknowledge that the fault lies not with others but with ourselves.
