....that some people have it easier?
Why all the assumptions about each other?
....the insecurities about oneself?
Why not walk up to a stranger and compliment them?
....and just take a picture with them?
Why is it that people think they'll find peace in death?
...in happiness?
Why is it that some of us find music soothing?
...chocolate soothing?
Why is it that people prefer sun and warmth over rain and cold?
...men and power over women and tenderness?
Why do people associate revolution with war?
...Egypt with the pyramids and desert?
Why do we burden ourselves and each other with standards?
...with expectations?
Why do people not smile as often anymore?
...not help each other as often anymore?
Why don't we reject the common stereotype?
...the filthy injustice?
Why is misery more common than satisfaction?
...poor more common than living?
