What’s wrong, do you think there is a reason for this, did something bad happen towards you today?

I’ve always been so idealistic. I’ve always thought the best of people. I’m losing faith in humanity. I keep seeing good people get hurt and used and beaten down by the greedy, selfish and cowardly, and I try to fight back, but I feel bad for hurting those people too, even if some think they deserve it. I feel very alone, and I feel like I’m in over my head. I feel like no one understands. These things don’t seem to effect others the way they effect me. I’ve become very depressed….

Are these people you see hurt, close to you or family members?

Yes, it is difficult to fight againts people who have more money/social status/political power. It’s hard for me to understand how people can be so selfish and do such terrible things.

I liked your video…

A person who sees themself as a rather uncaring person who feels remorse to those that they see that they have harmed is proof that the person has a heart.

It may be true that there are alot of good people getting the short end and bad people comming out on top, but remember that it isn’t always like that. The majority of people have good in them and want to do the right thing. All the stuff that corrupts people like money/greed, all of those are a test to see which people will have the ability to try and make the world better.

The fact that you feel remorse is proof that your a good person and you shouldn’t have to keep worrying about the people that you think you may have harmed beforehand. Your a different person today, better than yesterday and you can now move on and you have the chance to help others. Just because the world maybe corrupt dosen’t mean that you have to be. They say that in the end, good always wins, just remember that, I hope you understand what I mean.
