the "my life sucks" phenomenon

bakit nga ba tayo nagpapagalingan pagdating sa problema? parang mas malaki pa ung individual problems natin compared sa combined problems ng lahat ng tao sa mundo. well, isa lang explanation nyan. to quote an ally mcbeal conversation:

ally's colleague: what makes your problems so big?
ally mcbeal: they're mine.

need i say more? :p
