Problem: A difficulty that has to be resolved or dealt with.
I personally believe I encounter three kinds of problems.
1. Problems of my own making. (This is a huge category.)
2. Problems that are common to everyone such as an illness or a death of a loved one. (This is a big category. Not as big as #1 but still big.)
3. Problems of an unfair nature; to wit: getting screwed, fucked over, or otherwise treated poorly. (This category is small. Vanishingly small. It's a faint afterimage seen at the extremes of your peripheral vision. It's so small as to be statistically unmeasurable. A mathematician would discount its validity outright.)
Here's the funny thing: in my mind category 3 is monstrous, gargantuan, Godzilla-like in size. To everyone else's it's not even a category it's so small.
Perspective, baby.
