Why is life cruel mostly to people who have so much love to give?

Question

Like it does everything to either make you want to lose faith in life and love completely...or harden and numb your heart like most people....like it wants to turn all your love to bitterness or indifference...and if not...you're doomed to be miserable and melancholic...crawling..staggering like a wounded animal..groping blindly in the dark til you reach the edge
of your pointless existence.

Thanks for commenting Dark Prince...truth is.. this question was inspired by you...it was actually you who was on my mind when i thought about these things...
I'm glad you're feeling better now ...we all are =)

Answer 1

I don't know the answer to your question, but I wish I did. It seems that life likes to pile on. It's never just one thing but several at once, so it's like some sadistic test. Thanks to everyone who wrote and care for me. I was so sad last night I just did not want to go on. You guys have let me know there are people who do care and I love all of you.

Because They Allow People To Take Advantage Of Them, Because Of Their LovingKindness, They Do Not Put Their Foot Down Till Someone Has Comitted Acts Of Cruelty. This Happens Again & Again, Till They Become Bitter, When The Real Genuine People Went Under Radar, Now Too Late For Them, Because The Once Loving People Have No More Love To Give. It's Awful! It's Like The Devil Sends The Fake People Your Way, Then Time The Real Good Ones Come Your Way, Your Fed Up With Being Loving. Damn, I Doomed To Being 'Miserable And Melancholic' --- Lol!

Answer 3

Gee that's so funny, you seem really good at name calling and demonizing everyone else. That question wasn't a question at all, you're just looking for someone to agree with you. It's not going to happen here. All I can say is make sure your wife is financially stable before you go. It's the least you could do for cheating on her all this time. Oh, and you won't mind giving up your rights to your children either since you don't seem to have cared much for them while you were still married to their 'selfish and cruel' mother. Let them be with their mother, who I am sure gives them much more of her time and attention since she isn't out screwing her daughter's tee ball coach. Your girlfriend sounds like a real lovely lady, ha ha.

Answer 4

Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.

And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears.

And how else can it be?

The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.

Is not the cup that hold your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter's oven?

And is not the lute that soothes your spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?

When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.

When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.

Some of you say, "Joy is greater than sorrow," and others say, "Nay, sorrow is the greater."

But I say unto you, they are inseparable.

Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at your board, remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.

Verily you are suspended like scales between your sorrow and your joy.

Only when you are empty are you at standstill and balanced.

When the treasure-keeper lifts you to weigh his gold and his silver, needs must your joy or your sorrow rise or fall.

World is a complicated compound of right and wrong.It is difficult to identify the right and the genuine /pure from the duplicate or wrong.
Human life is an experiment of truth.
Every one must observe duties and responsibilities in the right manner and in the right path and on behalf of God.Even then there are chances for perplexity and confusion.To avoid such confusion we must pray before the Lord to guide us in the right path.
Dare enough to face the realities with an open mind without fear and favour and face the people with love and affection.

Answer 6

It is cruel. Our family just had a devastating blow with the loss of an much beloved Uncle. A gentle, loving soul who just loved all of us and so much more. It was indeed grievous as my Uncle Jim was also my only blood uncle and my Dad's very best friend in life. My Dad is a shining example that with such a loss there is still so much love in him to carry on and give so much to the rest of us.

Haven't lost faith and neither has my Dad. We both wait til can go fishing with Uncle Jim again.

Answer 7

life can be cruel at times, but then it can be very sweet as well. what I do to make life sweet is look at the positive aspects rather than the negative aspects. when I look at life the other way around, yes it does seem awful. the news is always full of the bad news, so I tend to not look in that direction, instead I look at nature, the good weather, the wildlife carrying on with their daily work, listen to music, write poetry, paint,learn jokes, and exercise. exercise helps a lot. it helps circulate blood and oxygen to the brain and allows the proper chemicals and hormones to be developed to calm and relax ones mind and body.

Answer 8

I feel like this often, myself. But it provides some solace to remember what the Buddhists say:

Life is suffering. We must understand and accept this, and suffering is called through greed. To rid ourselves of wants, and seek pure clarity, we will know peace.

I try to do this and it makes me feel better. You have to understand that the way that life is arranged by society today is to further consumerism: you're not complete according to them unless you have that shining new Iphone and flatscreen TV, right? Rid yourself of wants. I personally find that the less I buy into that, and seek more to enrich myself spiritually (not religiously) instead of enriching my material needs, take things less personally, do not assume things (look up the toltec principles), the happier about myself I become.

Perhaps also you are letting people take advantage of you...be on guard, because the world will...

Answer 9

WOW...what happened in your life to bring that tirade on? I've had setbacks but I've been able to overcome 'em and move on. I've never lost faith in life and love. Sounds like...you got dumped. Me too. And probably everyone else reading this answer has also. We deal with it...and move on. I might be "wounded"..but I'll get over it. I still have alot of love to give.

Answer 10

The universe is cruel in itself, so it takes it out on those enjoying life so as to make them also cruel. If your going through depression, your not the only one. Just push past it and live the life that the universe is trying so hard to keep from you. You'll get past it, I did.
