Why is it that the basic tendency of human beings as a race is always more inclined towards the negative? Whether it is an assumption, presumption or reaction, in a neutral and unbiased plane the first thought that comes to our minds is always negative. A friend who has done us a lot of good and very little bad will always be remembered by the one bad and the good is conveniently overshadowed. Its like negativity stems from within us and to quash it we need to think positive.

This theory of mine rooted from this simple question asked by one of my professors the answer to which superimposes this very theory. He asked us  "if A was standing facing east and B facing west what would their position to each other be?". And just about everybody in the room said back to back while the answer quite simply was face to face.
