The IWMFS Condition

"I cried because I had no shoes, till I saw a man who had no feet"

I'm not usually a fan of corny quotes, but this one has made me pause and think from time to time.

Many, I wanna say most, of us are blessed with consistently good health, loving families who are also healthy, and reasonably good food, clothing, shelter, and yes, shoes. But we all cry for our metaphorical shoes all the while knowing fully well that millions around us are living their lives without their metaphorical feet.

The problem is that we are surrounded by people who seem to have their shoes on. And we are tired of being around shoe wearing snobbish, smug bastards who refuse to treat us the way we want to be treated. And this is also when the karmic connundrum bothers us, and we scream - "I hate the fact that the people who have been mean to me and who are generally horrible excuses for human beings get shoes while i have to walk bare feet when I have been nothing but caring for my fellow beings. Why do i get this lot when I have been nothing but upright? I don't care if people nicer than me don't have feet, I want my fucking shoes."

And that, ladies and germs, is The IWMFS condition.
