well, the gods simply gave some people a hard life, so they simply have to take it. lol.

I don't believe in fate, but people who are negative may just have to accept they have more struggles than most.

Life is perception. Two people can have the exact same hand in poker, and the negative one will fold.

I disagree. I think some people are more prone to negativity. it's probably a mental aberration or something.

I think some people just invoke that reaction. I steer clear of them, since it's not decent to hate people.

I don't agree with this. I believe our lives are the fabric of the choices we have made for ourselves. Sure, it starts with your parents' choices they made for you but at some point you're on your own to make your own way so it's all about your choices, not the gods. Being negative is just another choice.

I've seen some people with absolutely the worst luck ever, be some of the cheeriest and most positive people.

Here is an example. I just see this different than you. I think it all balances out in the end, it's how you look at it.

Of course life is about luck, captain obvious. Not everyone has resiliency, the ability to bounce back from negative events. Some people bounce back faster than others, then again some never bounce back due to their own choices.

and? this is their own wrongdoing, and people will look down on them for it.

No I don't hate negative people.I feel sorry for the people that they've become.I don't feel it's always their fault for their negative behavior.Maybe it's something which happend to them in their childhood.
