I'm rather cynical, which makes me a realist with my feet firmly on the ground, whereas I see lots of people who insist on constantly "trying to find happiness" and tend to keep disappointing themselves, even if their life is going great. If they get knocked down slightly, it hurts them badly, whereas the cynic will say "fuck it" and keep going.
I think cynics and negative people are inherently "happier" despite outward appearances. Discuss. |
That's completely bollocks and based on sweeping generalizations. For starters, I'm by nature both a cynic and a guy who constantly tries to find happiness.
What I mean is that people are far more complex than that, you can't just take that sort of conclusions. Some people genuinely manage to constantly find happiness out of nothing, even when something very bad hits them. Others base their happiness on the momentum and will have huge ups and downs. Some people might find cynic-ness (is that a word?) to help them "keep them real", others find it to drag them down.
