cynicism is easy

we believe what we choose to believe about people, whether it be the good in them or the not so good. it is in fact always a choice.

those that choose to see the good do not always have the 'rose colored glasses' that cynics would claim. i believe it is much more difficult to search out the deep goodness inside even the most detestable individuals, than to find the bad and dwell on that.

conflict arises when two of these polar opposites meet. one thinks the best, the other thinks the worse, this is a recipe for disaster.

what is the solution?

honestly i think it very important to have friends with the same world outlook.

for me it would be those individuals that dig deep, the choose to see the best. that have hope on there shoulders and a sideways grin despite what the world throws at them.

i can't understand those who give up (though at time i do not blame them for doing so), i can;t get into there heads enough. maybe i am still naive.

If that is the case i pray it never changes. the view of the world with a hope shaped lens is much more bearable than the other options.

i will remain unchanged in this aspect, i will remain surprised when i meet people of the contrary.
