I'm not a holly roller or anything but I do believe in kindness to everyone. Why is it so easy to criticize ( YES MY SPELLING SUCKS) rather than being nice??

Well people have more faults than good traits, well thats what we presume. Have u ever sat back and thought of how well your friend treats you and why you like them so much. Its all the little things that you take for graunted. Other people will first judge this person and try and pick on their little flaws. As my granny used to say"Its easlier to judge someone who farted than the silent nice girl in the corner"

Don't apologize, your question has quite a lot of merit and nobody asks because too many are busy being mean. In ourselves we're not simply mean but predisposed to evil. We didn't start out that way, but that's what it shapes up to now. Some more than others, some less than others. Too, in a collection of societies where everyone feels powerless with a will to lash back, at what they feel is doing them wrong when, actually, anyone who won't fight back will do, it gives them a miserable sort of pleasure. In the process, that's all they end up being. Hard. Unkind. Miserable. Unforgiving. With a lost perception for decency. They end up being cynical and better delighting in the very thing they claim to have hated. This has to be resisted. Don't become like them nor take after their ways. Not easy, but others have done it and have lived decent, honorable lives. Hope this helps a little.

Believe it or not but negativity is our default mode. Psychologically speaking this is a researched reality. So, it actually takes effort to be nice or to be positive. Isn't that a strange mental wiring? But I am with you...it is great to live a positive up life...and the effort to reprogramme the default is well worth it!!!

Human nature to make fun of other people.

Some people take it to the extreme as far as criticizing because they have issues themselves they can't resolve. So they think why not make fun of some one else than deal with their own probs or try to find help.

Usually shows signs of immaturity.

I think that being nice vs mean makes a person feel vulnerable. You're detached when you're mean. And opening up and being nice just sets you up for criticism or heartache.

I also believe in kindness to everyone and I don't find it hard to be nice. My problem is when it comes to saying the truth to someone when know they wont like it.

Sometimes people think that they need to make other people look bad in order to make themselves look good. Wrong way to approach life, but it happens. I think we all have a little angel and a little devil inside that poke and prod us to do good or bad things, sometimes the little devil wins out! ;-)

Because people are inherently selfish. Some people are also oversensitive. If you're being a dumbass, I'll say it.
