You're so jaded, cause I'm the one that jaded you.

So I'm pretty sick of manipulation. People constantly pushing their own agendas. Always with their ulterior motives, doing whatever they can to get their own ways, at the expense of everything. Family, friendships, and relationships often get sacrificed when it comes to getting what you want. It's a cold hard truth of life that kinda sucks ( Read more... )

I believe that I have had this exact mood and thought before andrew. Sometimes when you are given a reason to believe people are crap, its really easy to convinced of it. Sometimes when you are faced with a difficult situation its easier to have cynical thoughts. Trust me when I say that I have had my fair share of cynicism, but usually those conclusions I so quickly jumped to weren't always fair.
You were right when you said, "We can twist everything to make it suit us". But the most important word in that sentence is CAN. Just because its possible to hurt people and manipulate doesn't mean that everyone will. I can confidently say that I have never done something with the pure intention of manipulation, and I know that I am not the only one.
There are a lot of pretty crappy people, and there is nothing that can be done about that. There are a lot of reasons to have cynical thoughts and doubt the good in people. You just have to remember that there is always good along with the bad. Nothing is purely bad or purely good. There will always be ups and downs to everything no matter where you are in life. If there are crappy manipulative, selfish, indecent people... then there is of course good ones. There are people that you can count on. There are people that don't make their choices based on selfish reasons. There are trustworthy people. There are people with good intentions. Sometimes these people are harder to find, but that just means that you need to value them even more when they come into your life.
I am sorry that you are having a bad day Andrew, but tomorrow is a brand new start. Although it may bring new and more confusing questions, you are bound to find some of the answers along the way.
