Many people take advantage of people without knowing. There’s good people and bad people in this world, but it’s important to try and understand everyone. I think for the most part most of us don’t like to take advantage. Most of us want to encourage and not be a narcissist. At one point everyone takes advantage of something or someone. On the other hand, some people take advantage because they feel bad about themselves. In order to bring themselves up, they want to bring someone else down. They believe some people deserve to be taken advantage of to make themselves feel better about the situation. In the short time I’ve lived on this earth I can say from my own experience that most of the people in this world are good. Everyone has off days, but it doesn’t change the kind of person they are. Being at school and having a job really has given me a new insight. Even when you find those types of people who just aren’t happy and need to put you down, the best way to handle it is to kill these people with kindness. Being kind to everyone is a lot different than letting someone take advantage.
