When I was in university, the people I met were almost always incredible and amazing, In my whole time there, I only met three people I did not like and one person that was racist.
When I left school, I met racist people around twice a week and liked less than 10% of the people I talked to and I wanted to figure that out:
Why is it, that in university, people are smart and kind and respectful and good looking and successful and compassionate and funny and caring?
And why is it, that out in the real world, people are dumb and mean and disrespectful and ugly and self destructive and cruel and boring and unpleasant?
Like why would one person have 80 good qualities while another has 0 good qualities?
And I thought of how God said the humble will be exalted and the proud would be humbled. The same humility that makes you thrive in academics and in life is the same humility that bonds you to the love and righteousness of God. It’s also why Asians are so successful, cause Asian culture stresses the idea of putting other people above yourself.
