Growin' up.

So we all start out as pretty innocent children...we grow up, learn more about the world...and see the bad side. But does that mean we all become cynical and bitter...?

I mean...my parents always tell me about how they used to be idealistic like me, and now, they're both pretty bitter and cynical. Does that mean that I'm going to be like that? Dana is pretty cynical as well, I'm not sure about Lori and Marc.

I dont want to lose faith in people. I wana be able to believe that people are good inside, and I wana be able to believe that good things will happen if you are patient...and not just for yourself. Why does everyone around me seem so cynical? Most defend it by saying "No, I'm realistic." which just shows how cynical and pessmistic some people are.

I think that being realistic is believing that sometimes the good will happen. Clearly it wont happen all the time, but it doesnt mean that you shouldnt give them the benefit of the doubt. On the reverse side, you clearly cant trust everyone. Also, in psych/bio, we learned about the best strategy to 'win' with the whole 'tit for tat' and 'always defect' and junk like that.

I'm too lazy to explain it right now cause I'm not very articulate right now and my emotions are kinda goin wack..So maybe another time. Time to sleep or something, hahaha...probably shower is better...so I dont smell like coffeee >_<
