LOL No. Yes, we shouldn't judge too harshly...but (((Occulty))) honey, you are too generous....most peeps without even realizing it are underachievers....next to nobody is being all that they can be.... Bad habits & laziness.....abound.....I'm guilty too....when I light up & sit back with my vidya games, I tell myself that it keeps me from going on a murderous rampage in real life, but the truth is I'd probably be better off going for a run & maybe cleaning my basement..... Maybe (((RScott))) is one of the few peeps I know of who is always doing something....and most of it sounds pretty damn cool.... You talk about how you are wasting time here when you should be writing.....see what I'm getting at? We all have something we SHOULD be doing.... Look at the obesity crisis....are you sure some of them are really doing all that they can?
Look at the peeps who pursue good looks at all costs....what good is that vapidness doing anyone? Look at the homeless, the starving, the lonely even.....could somebody just bake a pie & take it to their neighbour who is suffering terribly from loneliness? Did you just walk past a piece of garbage on the street & not pick it up?
Naw....most humans are underachievers....
False. Your initial assumption is that people all try to be good, and I don't see that as true. Generally, people try to do the Least they can, to get away with things, to do nothing at all if possible.
I also disagree with your "disadvantage" theory. People are responsible for their own actions, always, and alone. An alcoholic is prone to drinking, but the Choice to take the drink is still theirs, no matter what.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
