i have weeks of pessimism. I am deeply cynical and have been very full of doubt. This is because I had not studied enough.

I'm cynical because of the people I see and meet in everyday life.

I'm hopeful because of the people I see and hear every day here.

Not all of them, some of them just reinforce the cynicism, but Steemit seems to be a gathering place for a lot of good people.

I"m exploring the #Nigeria tag here in steemit because I am finding new perspectives, which are based in gratitude. I don't see a lot of Americans who feel grateful, and so I get to go to a different place here on Steemit to find it.....

Most Muricans don't appreciate what they have so they don't feel like they need to be grateful. In fact too many feel like even more is owed to them.

There's going to be a rude awakening for a lot of people.
