As of late, I wonder why all the cruelty and apathy. I'm an idealistic person, I admit, but it just seems like the world hurts so much all the time. If I feel so much of other's pain, how is it possible that there are people who feel no empathy for anyone at all or worse, those who enjoy other's pain?

As we like to say here at work "it is what it is" but deep in my unrealistic heart I wish it weren't.

The good that I know exists seems overshadowed, and becoming more so each day.
