Cynical
(adjective)
When life has worn you down so much that you start seeing only the dark side of everything and you think that fairy tales, romcoms, and inherent goodness don’t exist in the real world.
This post was written in response to today’s One-Liner Wednesday challenge from Linda G. Hill. The challenge, as the name implies is to come up with a one-liner. This post is also a response to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC) which requires the participants to write a post of any length using the word for the day – “Cynical”. Please click on the link to know more about the rules of these challenges and/or to read the other entries by my fellow bloggers.
In a recent poll, I got to know that One-liner Wednesdays is the least favourite regular feature on my blog! I didn’t do one last week and nobody noticed. I have to admit that I was a bit sad initially, but I have decided to keep this feature going no matter what. I love to give alternate definitions for commonplace words and I hope that there’s at least a small group of people who enjoy this as much as I do!
Wherever you are, I hope you are safe and well. Take care.

The world is all topsy-turvy, Shweta. And cynicism is a natural fallout. But hold onto that sliver of hope. It might just deliver yet. x

Oh I’m far from being a cynic. On the other hand, my glasses still have a tinge of the rose-coloured film. So yes, I’ll hold on to that sliver of hope. Thanks for dropping by 🙂
