Sometimes it seems like some people were never brought up with the 'ol "if you can't say anything nice" advice. Plus negativity is contagious. But from what I've noticed from the outside world is that most people try to have a good heart. For every insult I've had directed my way, there's always five smiles not far behind. i have yet to have anyone bold enough to put me down to my face, rather just from a comfortable distance that these professionally trained ears can hear. The strange thing is that negative comments typically come from those who look like someone just took their birthday away from them. So I doubt that I have much to do with their own world of sorrow.
