Why are people mean? And by 'people', I mean everyone - even myself. Like, why do we do or say things purely to hurt others? Being 'mean' has almost become a normality. It's common to hear a girl say "Mary Jones is such a bitch." or to hate someone on the basis that your friend has beef with them. I just don't understand. I honestly find it so hard to find sound reasoning behind that kind of behaviour. At the same time, I'm not saying I'm a saint. I know how easy it is to get caught up in that kind of thing. It's so easy, you don't even notice you're doing it...
