The Battle

Why the incessant arguing? Why does it seem like peace evades us every time we open our mouths to speak? Why do we take advantage of every opportunity to ridicule, taunt, mock? Why are we so incredibly negative? What have we done to create in ourselves this cynical, contemptuous, scornful character? Is it media? Is it the lack of meaning that we find in our own individual lives that spurs us to find the infinitesimal faults in others? Why is this battle for love and optimism so arduous?

If I find the answers to the above questions, I'll be sure to document my findings. For some reason though, I have a feeling this question will take a lifetime to unravel...
