Not so chronophobic

First of all, is this just me?

It is pretty evident that human lifespan is reducing as generations pass by. Our grandparents at the age of fifty were stronger than how I would probably be by twenty-five. And we all know what contributes to this. Food adulteration, pollution, global warming, what not... Summers get warmer every year. And the winters are getting so harsh I can't even describe. Soon the environmental conditions would become unfit for survival.

I can't help but think, 'Is it even worth living anymore?'
I probably sound utterly stupid but it is indeed very frightening that one day in my future (which I don't see to be very flourishing anyway) everybody around would be struggling to live. I'm not blaming anyone, just so you don't get me wrong. Because somewhere, somehow, all of us as responsible for this. And measures are being taken all over the world to overcome these issues but maybe it's too late. Maybe it's all going to end without a "happily ever after" anyway. And the few good things we do don't even come remotely close to balancing the damage caused to the earth over the centuries.

Perceptions

Have you ever heard someone say something to you and wondered, 'Why didn't they tell this to me earlier? Had I been in their position, I would have broken the news to them the millisecond that I'd receive it!' We often have certain expectations from certain people. And these expectations, we all know, lead to disappointments. Whether or not you're ready to admit, all of us are hypocrites. We talk about a million things people around us could have done to make stuff work better, but deep down, don't we know that we're no better?

It's human nature. It's natural to think that we know things better than others. It's natural to feel like our opinion makes more sense than everybody else's. It's natural to have faith in our idea rather than others'. But what most of us don't seem to realize is that everybody else feels the same way as naturally as we do. Everybody is the hero of their own story, and they wouldn't like to be treated otherwise.
