I agree.
It also boils down to fear. There is so much fearmongering going
around, it is no wonder people are becoming more afraid of anyone who
is not "like us".

It all boils down to lack of LOVE. If only from childhood we are all
taught to love everyone dearly, and to overcome hurt, anger and
disappointments with love, i think the world would not be as it is.
And also if from childhood we were taught not to nurse our PRIDE too
much, then we would not be where we are now. PRIDE is the source of
all evil while LOVE is the source of all goodness.
But, this is difficult and needs much training and self discipline.

I know what you mean. I'm reminded of a remark I once heard;
"I have two speeds, slow and stop. If you don't like this one you
sure
won't be happy with the other."

they could care less that I might have a problem walking. The funny
thing is when someone tries to rush me I get excited and go twice as
slow...lol.
