One can be used 2 ways: for better or for worse. Most of us wish it could all be for better. People just aren't that way. They say horrible things about you. They do things that could hurt you. If one person does it, that's one thing. But people follow that one person. If one person hates you, more people will hate you. If one person convinces somebody else to do something, everybody thinks is okay. And really, it's not. They try to take away that one last piece of gold. Don't let them. But whether you do or don't, you will be asking the same question: Why?
