Why do some people complain about wanting to 'be taller'??

Some people try to hide their baldness!!

Why??

Is there ANY procedure which can MAKE you taller?! Or grow hair back?? Shit is there!!

Why NOT simply accept that as a part of who you are!! You have NO CHOICE to do so, since there's nothing you CAN do to alter it!!!

Lets see:

1. Yes there is.
2. To a degree in some cases.

So

Human nature, you are human, right? Well humans want things even when it's not going to happen. They want to be desired, wanted and will want to change to achieve this, it's a good thing.

Sometimes YOU HAVE to accept the cards you dealt with!!!

I think YOU will find that YOU ARE WRONG THERE!!!!!

See that five !

There is never an instance where you HAVE to do ANYTHING and you just saying that they have to is totally meaningless.

of course. However, some people have to crane their neck to be able to see the face of the one they're talking to because of their short stature. i don't experience this too often myself being 5'10"; but i know my mother and relatives don't enjoy it one bit. So, they express their wish that they were just a bit taller, i brush it off as just a throw-away comment <like they would if i were to say "i wish i had green eyes">, and life moves on. It's certainly nothing worth wasting capital letters and inordinate amounts of exclamation marks over.

A good case for being dispassionate. It frees you to do other constructive things.

I would like to have spectacular boobies, and if I ever win lotto I'm going to get me a pair.
