I love my family, the holidays, and family traditions. I also love anything that has to do with my childhood (movies, games, places, etc.). I love my job and most of everything about my life. School on the other hand, I'm really not "feeling" it at all. And most children irritate me...

Not all media, but the main stream media to say the least.

You're not alone. I feel the same.

SS7, the older I get the more I feel like there is no truth in life and that we are merely intelligent animals who are just as controlled by instinct and evolutionary advantage as animals are. It's easy to get cynical when you have that lingering in your head.

I'm very sentimental, but not about what the culture says I should be.  If something moves me, then I cherish it & fully enjoy it, even if others think it is silly. 

IMO, cynicism is just an angry mask for depression.  Yes, there are ugly aspects to life, but there is also so much beauty and wonder.  Those who are deeply depressed can only see the ugliness, and their anger motivates them to denigrate those who appreciate the beauty and wonder they can no longer see.  :sad:
