When old practices are no longer followed
even by those who are older and supposedly wiser,
When people's response to everything supposedly helpful
and for the greater good is cynical and negative,
A revolution is at hand.
Where everybody loses. Millions of lives will suffer with the conflagration.
The good has vanished (or has been banished?).
Idealism is dead.
Welcome to the world of cynics.
It is not a vignette of despair.
There's still christmas and the coming new year.
Enjoy the season and do something positive.
A single act of kindness (or honesty) can cascade
and might even overturn all negativity.
