India: `The creativity out here is incredible!' 1701

Old Pif

Yeah, but this time you excelled in it.

BTW, I had been thinking of myself as a cynicist for many years, and I was proud of it. I thought I was a carrier of ethically high qualities. Then, one day (it was around 4 years ago), I was hired into a job and was greatly hurt by a boss. He himself was an immigrant and prided himself to be a great cynicist. Since then, I started to hate cynicists, and I introduced corrections into whom I believed to be: I started to think of myself as a repenting cynicist. That's now who was the carrier of the high moral values ! :-)

(Repenting cynicist is the one who does his cynic deeds, but he is sorry about doing it and is repenting it. Repenting is what is cleansing him and does not let him to fall into the even greater depth of the cynicism sin. In other words, the cynicist is hurting other people by his actions, but he is aware of this fact, and he is working on reducing the damage doen to other people. I must confess I took this idea from the eastern orthodox christianity as is opposed to the catholic-protestant christianity).
