Over the years I have noticed I attract people with a "gift" to see the paranormal and some family members have claimed to have abilities beyond the normal. While I myself have had creepy moments, but nothing unexplainable, I've had people tell me theirs. People I would have trusted with my life… read more
Your capacity for love isn’t dependent on whether someone is currently loving you back. You can be disappointed, hurt, walk away, choose your peace — and still not become cynical about love itself. ✨
Erase Me
I’ve been thinking... if you were to be born all over again by these dusty roads, where the wind sweeps the gray grit straight into the city... to be so breathtakingly beautiful in a place so wrong, it truly feels more like a burden than a gift. It is hard to keep a gentle soul intact here. If we… read more
In Luigi Bartolini's novel the Bicycle Thieves, we follow an cynical artist/author and intellectual as he navigates post-WW2 Rome in search for his stolen bicycle. Knowing the police won't help, he navigates the underground of Rome's black markets in search for what was stolen. What's interesting… read more
Hey everyone, 💖 I miss having the long hair, this was a couple years ago for halloween. My personality? I actually prefer to be a bright personality, Irony is one of the best parts of humor, But sometimes that leads me to being too cynical, I admit. I study a lot, Play devil's advocate, Like to… read more
I have a hard time feeling close to people. It’s not a lack of empathy, but maybe more like a lingering trauma response. I had a tough life when I was young and it just didn’t set me up for developing close relationships. But I always wanted to have some kind of wonderful romance with someone. I… (edited) read more
(for the guys) This is entertaining but interesting, and for the record, this is exactly how I worded it and how it replied to this question (and by all means ladies, somebody ask chatGPT the same question I did about we men because I'm curious; but I think it's only fair that a lady asks that… read more
How often do people diminish us just because our manners and our speech don't conform to what they consider as proper? How often individuals are given value just according to how they're perceived, even if they're horrible people on the inside? What I loved the most in George Bernard Shaw's play… read more
Yeah I’m depressing and nihilistic and cynical but in a casual way🖤
A cynic, a realist or an optimist? *extra options below* I can't with passive people or overly negative 🤭

There's a particular kind of mind that needs the whole five-course experience before it'll admit anything was good. It runs a quiet audit under everything — was that really worth feeling something about? — and mostly comes back with "fine, I guess." Not cynical, exactly. Just cautious with its own… read more
You have the right to remain optimistic You have the right to not adopt a cynical point of view This right is intangible yet I'll explain it in these lines for you It matters to me that you are happy It matters to me that you feel free It matters so much that you are able to see the total sum of… (edited) read more
Without going too much into the details, truth is objective right? So if being cynical about a situation when it is based on and grounded in truth…why does pride prevent people from seeing facts as facts?
The deeper I dig into myself, the more it heals me — and terrifies me at the same time. With every illusion shattered, space opens up for the truth, but it brings a sharp, aching fear. What about my dreams? What about my childhood, innocent love?The beautiful feelings I spent years painting in my… read more
I prefer “coffee” to “tea”, especially traditional cappuccinos, my indulgence. Sometimes feel I’m in the deep end of the pool without a PFD (a personal flotation device). Am I awkward? For sure! Sometimes dark & cynical, misanthropic even, while other times I’m dangerously “unchilled”. Most… read more
There is a specific kind of nausea that comes from standing on the precipice of your own needs, waiting for someone to notice you’re not dead yet. It feels like you are constantly holding out a tin cup, rattling it against the iron bars of someone else’s indifference, hoping for a drop of something… read more
You do not need the approval or validation of others to enjoy existence. I see solitude as freedom. Manipulative and selfish people at least to my cynical eye seem to be pretty commonplace. I take a step back very often because I see forming friendships and relationships as a poor investment of my… read more
This quote from Carl Jung hits so hard. "The world is full of people suffering from the effects of their own unlived life. They become bitter, critical, or rigid, not because the world is cruel to them, but because they have betrayed their own inner possibilities. The artist who never makes art… read more
"Doubt is the beginning, not the end, of wisdom." - George Iles A questioning attitude is not about being cynical or contrarian. It is about keeping your mind sharp and your options open. Blind optimism is just as dangerous as constant doubt because both lead to poor decisions. Healthy… read more
It's easy to get cynical and bitter in life but sometimes a movie comes along and just reminds you that it's okay to just allow yourself to enjoy and be happy 🙂
I don't know how many weak smiles I have left. I'm sure there's a limit, it's a safe bet. They say persevere, smile and you'll be clear. I ain't got a lot left because of the jobs I've had and trying to hide the fact I'm always hanging my head. I've felt the pressure of a high traffic rush, I… read more
Yeah, many law in this country only say " Where the evidence found " But not to extend " How it's end up there " You're touching on a classic tension in criminal investigation. Finding evidence answers one question: > "What is here?" But understanding a crime often requires a second… read more
I don’t want to deal with someone who’s constantly negative, but I also don’t trust someone who paints everything like a Disney fairytale. At that point, it feels less genuine and more like a setup.
Caught between believing your words Or these stories I read in the gaps between them Unable to decipher with reason Linger in liminal conditioning cynical Space always hurts Such needy bleeding Intuition or oversensitive nerves Prepare for the worst Each burst of your language leaks… read more
Lost in the liminal Space filled with black holes to slip into Mind finds thought blossoms so cynical Melancholy master of longing so pitiful Pity party Shooting targets When I sob a story Its typical I'm a dog with a bone Tale chasing so cyclical Tie the bow Erode and bow… read more
I walk to a place on wide pavement in broad daylight. I go through the tunnel on echoing footsteps in loud silence. They make no difference. Cynical faces appear as you sing like a vurture in painful hunger. Endless dialogues emerge as you mumble like a priest with his rosary. They make no… read more
Two stories by Dostoevsky. Two completely different kinds of madness. 📖✨ 🌆 White Nights: This one hits a little too close to home. It’s about a lonely "Dreamer" who lives entirely in his own head until he meets Nastenka. He becomes her emotional anchor, pouring his whole heart out to her over… (edited) read more
** no matter how strong you are, you can't deny the fact that you'd be needing someone to curl up into their scent, feel the warmth of their neck hoping youll be safe to fall asleep after a long battle against life. It's okay not to be okay. It's okay to need someone.** For months she's been… read more
