absolutes

in a moment of deep reflection today (probably inspired by Star Wars III), I came to the realization that:
"Nothing is so absolutely wrong as governing by absolutes."

some fate

In the face of hardship:
some people believe it is divine retribution and they must suffer it as victims/repentance;
others believe it is another challenge to prevent ourselves from becoming complacent, and use it as an opportunity to learn and grow stronger.

I'm tired of the first kind, why do I have to suffer them?
