Why are we so negative? why do we have this perpertual fear within us.. is the water clean? is the palce safe? are we being tricked by this salesman?.. u get the point. I do understand that we need to be precautious to an extent, but lately ive started realizing that people(including me) are taking these things to seriously and default with a negative attitude.
Today after a long time i travelled for about 2 hours without my Ipod in the train and realized something strange. There seems to be a fundamental negative vibe between most human beings in the society. Why does everybody have to tie themselves down to an introvertial behaviour and assume that the people around you dont want to/ like to talk to you, know about you etc..I cant comprehend the barrier.
Anyways, all this thinking makes my brain hurt..

I am inclined to think the attitude exists since it's easier than the alternative.
When you tie yourself down to an introvertial behaviour and assume that the people around you don't want to/like to talk to you, know about and then when you realize someone is not that way after all, it turns out to be a pleasant surprise.
However, if you start out with the assumption that everyone is interested in talking and knowing about others, and the opposite is true, you are in for a rude awakening.
@Hari - Your thought makes perfect sense looking at a isolated observation of what we have turned into today .Again, i think my queries focus on a more fundamental concept of, why we dont/didnt choose to perceive the now non natural thing to do as natural.
I think its more to do with animal instincts.. we do not know much.. we humans think we r superior and that we are, but we shld also know that we are just a wrapper arnd wat was thr before.. we r just animals at the base level.. certain things trap to ur base class and u cant help it. For eg u look at someone and u have a fleeting prejudiced opinion. Can u help not having such a fleeting opinion? So my point is this, being cynical and finding negatives is in us, we cant help but realise it and avoid it as much as we can. kinda like how things always go from orderliness to disorderliness, universal and no reason or rhyme.
