"It is far easier to make war than peace." -Georges Clemenceau

It takes less effort to be mean than nice. It takes less effort to be a bystander then be a contributor. It takes less effort to frown than smile. so what not go through life being a frowning, mean, bystander? because just because something is easier, doesn't mean its better. If you simply but a little more effort into all your actions in life, the outcome may be something much more enjoyable. Its sort of similar to talking to your family about what birthday present you want. If you man up and tell them exactly what would make you happy, you will be happy. If you say the easiest answer "i don't know", you'll end up with a bunch of socks and a gift card.
