there seems to be a strange thing going on out there...
people choose to be cynical, deriding everything as "boring"...
when someone is slack-jawed in wonder at a new discovery, the
person is looked down upon as "idiotic, naive, stupid..."
wallowing in their own misery seems to be "cooler" than getting off
their asses and going out to try and be happy.. happy people are
looked on as, like the person who allows himself to be awestruck,
he is thought of as "stupid"
being bored and complaining about it without doing anything,
behaving as if the world owes them entertainment, is okay while
those who get up, go out and look for simple pleasures, to choose
to be amazed by the world, to find happiness, are "silly, naive
sheep"
something is wrong isn't it?
is choosing not to become negative so wrong these days that being
positive and deciding to be optimistic and daring to hope is seen
as a character flaw?
what is your take on this, because i'm pretty disturbed...
cynicism is the beginning of losing all hope.. and when all hope is
lost, we lose our humanity...
