Accentuate the Positive

I say all this supportive, positive crap and always try to point people to a way things can get better or be better or feel less bad, and I shouldn't. It's selfish, and I don't actually know anything. I want things to be better. I want people to be better to each other and care and be rational but that's not reality.
Good outcomes are rare, and there's no formula for them. If you've ended up here, you're already down. You've missed more than a few coin flips, either materialistically, genetically, emotionally, or whatever. You're down. And the fact of the matter is that we're probably not going to climb out. Even if we hit a few wins, we're too far down. You can do everything right, follow the rules, be good to others, try and try again and you'll still wind up right down on your face again.
@FuneralCry was a prophet. Hope is a killer.
The problem with positivity is that it's a lie.
