Thanksgiving People I know would never consider me to be a philanthropist. And being the holiday of giving thanks I would it would be appropriate to be thankful.... thankful for being the cynical misanthrope that I am today. It is situations like my current one that shows me the inhumanity of mankind. The fact that I am a mocker of the current state of human evolution doesn't make me a bad person. My obvious hatred for the thoughts of seeming goodness in people allows me a certain charismatic pleasure in the fact that no matter who I am, I know that people will always cheat, steal, and lie, to get what they want... selfishness is not a character flaw, it is a natural inevitability. We aren't destined to do great things, the people who do that slip through the cracks in the design. We are all meant to be mediocre at best... the design for human advancement isn't that of innovation and brilliance... it is that of selfish indignity.

To get to the heart of my post... I am thankful for the ability to know that no matter who I become, and no matter what people think of me... behind the scenes there are far worse creatures than I. For the fears of mediocrity will make even the noblest of men fall. // sk0t @ 1:27 AM :: Comments [0] :: Digg This ::
