Why is it easier to sympathize to somebody who just lost his job than to
somebody who just won the first prize in a lottery?

Why is it easier to spend much money for a birthday gift than to buy that
item for your self?

Why is it easier to memorize movie lines instead of some quotes from the
bible?

Why is it so easy to criticize other people than to accept criticism from
others?

Why is it so tiring to hold your own baby brother or sister when in fact,
you sometimes volunteer to take care of your neighbor's baby?

Why does eating ice cream on a cone more pleasurable than eating it on a
glass?

Why do some people bathe with milk while some babies and small children are
dying out of famine?

Why is it so cool to be talking about your religion but not practicing your
doctrines.

Why are some mothers terminating their pregnancy while some are spending
fortune just to conceive a child.

Why do rich people have fewer kids than poor people?

Why do guys do all their best during courtship and forget about chivalry
when engaged or married?

Why do some people work hard like there is no tomorrow, only to die when he
is 27?

Why do some people love to hear gossips than to know the economic situation
of the country?

Why are people afraid to see the doctor when he feels something is wrong in
his body?

Why do men want to get the "totality" of his girlfriend, only to
leave her when he got what he wanted?

Why do some people drink too much intoxicating drinks beyond their limit?

Why do some people take pep pills to stay awake while some people take
depressants to sleep right away?

Why do fair-skinned people tan their complexion while dark-skinned people
bleach theirs?

Life on earth has a lot of ironies.

Some people will view life as a journey, but for some, it is just mere
existence.
