We Expect to Challenge Others and not be Challenged Ourselves

If we're not allowing people do live productive lives then we're doing a disservice. We live in a world where people think that they can say and do anything to others and they're going to slide by without being challenged in soemway.It's not being vengeful when people are trying to get others to understand that we have "rights." Taking a person or youth rights away is inhumane. We should teach but while teaching we shouldn't try to intentionally harm. If we're not learning then we're not living. Just because people live differently than others that doesn't mean that they're beneath anyone else. Being bullied is nowhere near being challenged. We must create changes that will make society a better place to live in.If people are constantly telling others to make changes and they're not doing the same then they should remain silent on that issue. The way people live their lives is up to them. We can try to encourage others to make better choices but we can't force anyone to make choices they are not prepared to make or don't want to make. We should be more concerned about social issues instead of people's lives. Society is filled with all sorts of issues. Youth violence, gun violence, and bullying. We're focused on the wrong things and until we understand that. We will continue to be challenged. It's like taking a test if we miss the test then we'll have to make it up. Some people enjoy challenging others but they're not prepared to be challenged themselves. Society has way too many issues to be so focused on how people are living their lives.

You seem frustrated? Majority of the people are always like this. Hypocrites in their own chosen field. :)

Not frustrated but gearing towards something that can help in some way.

You're right. Challenging someone is a lot different that bullying them into doing something. I love a good challenge. I don't always succeed but when I do, a sense of satisfaction washes over me. I love it and want others to know how that feels.
