The one thing that comes to mind is’

Keep it simple, Suffering soul. (K.I.S.S.S.)

When we try to look too deeply into things, a lot of unexplainable things come to mind, that we ourselves, are in no way equipped to deal with. We nee to just ‘Allow things to just be’, instead of fruitless attempts at changing everything to our own desires. Other people are exactly that; Other people. With totally different viewpoints on life in general to our own.

Why are other people like that? Well, if we knew, perhaps life would be a little easier, I don’t know.
