Something About Being Cynical

4 Comments

I’m rarely a cynical person, I try to be positive in many things. However the climate we live in is making us all suspicious and stopping to ask hard questions. We see bad things happening all the time and we have become jaded and see the world for what it’s becoming instead of what it can be. My hope for the future is a return to idealism and dreams without the doubts and negative space.

Good Intentions Gone Viral

4 Comments

When you see one of those videos that goes viral do you ask yourself what is the back story here? I find myself being cynical about a video going around about a kid named Keaton who was being bullied at school. It is my hope that his parent had good intentions about doing the video and not to exploit her son who is clearly suffering at school. Our instincts can fill in the holes on a story if we ask the right questions. Needless to say I hope there are good intentions and that everything is on the up and up here.
