Irrationality, Greed, and Self-centeredness

Why do dome people consider themselves superior to others? Why do they put themselves up the pedestal for others to worship them? Why do they spread rumors about other people, fabricating facts, and causing conflict between different parties? Why do they live in the world of the past, which cause them discomfort that the present is highly influenced by what had happened way back in history? Can’t they forget and put the doubt aside? Why do they make irrational judgments that often stems from anger and hatred? Why do they widen the scope of the issue, from simple gesture of the flipping of one’s hair to an act of insulting maneuver? … from an unbiased opinion to an opinion emerging from self-interest? … from a misunderstanding on whose name should appear in a formal letter to false judgment that there was an assuming and unconcerned member who thinks he’s in authority? … from a simple friendly joke to an insulting attacks? …and from a simple hearsay to a ground for a libel case? Sigh. I hope this would soon be over.
