So far, i have only counted about five of the things i hate about the world we live in, but please be assured that my explanations for these things will be just as valuable as everyone's ten.
The first -Ignorance
To some, ignorance is bliss. Alot of people are happy within their spheres of reality going about their business, ignorant of the things outside of their sphere. To them it seems, these concepts are irellavent. Some of these people even go as far as to believe that when concepts outside of their sphere of reality merge into theirs, they often ignore its presence completely in order to protet themselves.

We are born alone, and some would have us believe we die alone. But somewhere in between, people can become overly selfish. They can take what is not theirs,and claim it for their own. They can monopolise people, time, money and situations to their own ends. The key to understanding selfishness is to understand the intentions behind the actions augmenting a selfish approach. Some actions can appear selfish, but can help many at a greater level,at other junctures in time. Other actions can appear as unselfish, and end up to be the most selfish acts ever witnessed. The intentions behins thse actions are therefore linked to the lack
