"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new." Albert Einstein.

Today, I woke up and decided it was time to begin my blog.

I also decided (yet again) to become the main vocalist in a heavy metal screamo band and a monk. However, by 1pm and a cup of coffee I came to the realisation (yet again) that my basic level of musicality and lack of motivation for upholding Buddhist ethics every single day, would make all of this troublesome.  Lunchtime is always a very sobering time of the day.

My blog title "Cynicism Is Dead" was frankly chosen because I only had a few ideas what to name a themeless blog of an inconsistent and erratic nature, intended to be for anything I wish to write about.  

Also, because I've come to view blogging as synonymous to bitching.  It is god damn easy to be a cynical bitch commenting negatively about everything under the sun; it does not require much talent and gives off the faint reek of a defeatist attitude - active enough to criticise, but too far removed with disdain to change whatever is antagonising you.  

While condoning the naivety of optimistic idealism is not any better either, I suppose holding that attitude makes you a happier person - until reality crushes you like a worm. But who knows when or whether the crushing will ever come.  All I know is, optimism is a lot harder to pull off than pessimism. 

It is pretty good aswell in that if I do end up having a complete and utter bitch fit on here, in relation to the title, hopefully it may all just come across as mildly witty and ironic.

Now aren't all of these cats wonderfully fashionable.
