"Most people would rather be certain they're miserable than risk being happy."
-- Robert Anthony
What a great quote and how true of so many attitudes today. It is as if people are afraid to embrace the blessings God sends them for some reason. Perhaps, they feel that the certainty is in misery so why take a chance on being disappointed in happiness.
It is a self-centered world that breeds this type of outlook. If they look out from their misery, they might have to include others who have things to say or do. They feel the loss of the limelight. Regardless of the saying, 'misery loves company', miserable, grumpy people don't have a large following. The most they get in socializing their depression is a few moments before the cornered person moves on to enjoy life.
