"It is easy to hate and it is difficult to love. This is how the whole scheme of things works. All good things are difficult to achieve; and bad things are very easy to get."
Confucius
This explains a lot! It's easy to hate, it's easy to be negative, it's easy to make excuses. It is love, forgiveness, and greatness that require a great heart, a great mind, and a great effort.

    Lol. To be fair that's a really good point from OP. We see that all the time, it takes a certain amount of "strength" (if you will) to be positive and sincerely want to help those who need it.
