Cynicism on the Rise

Chris and I were chit-chatting about perspective, especially in relation to positivity.

He shared the following quote with me, I think it might be George Saunders: "So I got a little place of my own and moved her in with me. Now we're pals. Family. It's not perfect. Sometimes it's damn hard. But I look after her and she squeals with delight when I come home, and the sum total of sadness in the world is less than it would have been."

Chris said of this, "I like that last part...it's been said before, but it's nice to be reminded that that's even possible."

For some odd reason, me being the weirdo that I am, I thought of this song from Dr. Horrible:



Yep. This captures two opposing perspectives, and it's fun.

Slipping, especially the early portion, is one of my favorites.
