The capability of humans to mess things up is tiny? Now, a claim like that is darkly admirable to me? And the fact how easily you and probably all humans abdicate their responsibility.

The uncomfortable truth is that bad things a lot of times don't just happen to us, we welcome them by not taking responsibility and avoiding the truth and avoiding putting in effort to fix things and do the right thing.

Of course I can speak only for myself, as I always do, and I know that the bad things that have happended to me are predominantly consequences of my choices, whereas the good things are often some sort of a miracle int he face of all bad choices I have made.
