One thing that I absolutely cannot stand is a pity
party. I don’t like throwing one for others and sure enough, I do not enjoy
having one for myself. As a matter of fact, if I even think of muttering a
complaint (not venting but full out “woe is me, life is so unfair” complaining),
often times I find myself rebuking the thought. Why is that? Because
complaining leads to self-pity and self-pity will kill your vibe and zap the
energy of those who try to cater to this ridiculousness.
This may sound harsh, but after hearing about what happened in May with Isla Vista Killings, this just reaffirms my views on the topic
at hand. Elliot Rodger, the murderer, was not only deeply disturbed but he was extremely
unappreciative. He thought that he deserved everything but did not put in the
work needed to get results. He truly thought that everything he desired should
come his way. He did not sow but expected to reap in abundance. This poor mentality
led him to wallow in his pity.
