together a list of reasons I feel this way.

like. Society has become so preoccupied with vanity that it is rediculous
to even try and be yourself. (yes, I am not that attractive, or so I have
been told)

matter who they have to push down or step on in order to get them. This
makes it tough for those that tend to want to just be happy. (Yes, someone
who has nothing and lives on the street can be just as happy as someone who
has everything they could ever want or need. If you consider that happiness
that is)

>3.) Human nature is self-destructive so even if we could get everyone to
quit being so self-centered and live life happily for a little while,
sooner or later it would all go to hell again. (Yes, I do realize that with
out bad there can be no good)

>4.) Not to many people can be trusted any more, even closest of friends
will turn once given the opportunity or if they are bribed enough. (Nope,
haven't had this happen yet, but I see lots of examples of it everyday.)

>5.) Even when you try and stay out of societies way and just struggle on
with your life, things always tend to turn up that make you end up worse
off than you started. (Yes, I realize that everyonce in a while, by some
freak miracle, something good will happen to anyone if they let it.)

depressed I just had to vent a little.
