It's Nice To Be Nice.

The world, at present, easily becomes a breeding ground for negativity. The comments section of the internet, be it on YouTube or news articles, are often full of criticism, rudeness and pointless hatred. When did we become a part of this strange hate culture where we're so happy to be mean to our fellow man? Even "humour" nowadays seems to too often stem from making fun of others more and more cruelly. I suppose I write this because I'm tired of seeing people surreptitiously hating on each other on social media sites or leaving disrespectful comments on YouTube videos.


Instead why not spread positivity? It's so much more productive to go out of your way to build someone up than to spend your time tearing them down. Surely it's a better thing to do to be nice to others rather than tearing them down. If you give it some thought I'm sure you can find something nice to say to someone. Even Thumper, an animated rabbit from the film Bambi, has nailed the general idea. Just be nice to people. If there is some karmic force in the universe then it'll probably do you some good.

Why not try to make someone's day by leaving a nice comment on their YouTube video, giving people a thumbs up or passing on a compliment. It can really make a day for someone just to have that little pat on the back and if you were having a bad day I'm sure you'd appreciate the same. The world is full of people trying, doing, remaining enthusiastic and they're worth more than all of the people who just sit around trying to bring them down.
