Yes, I think a certain element of scepticism is essential and advised, but cynicism is never warranted, in my eyes. Cynicism is, in essence, the unwillingless to accept the possibility that it might be true, while doubt is a genuine uncertainty.<BR/><BR/>And, I will never stop writing, lol. I've been writing since I was 11 (that is, material that wasn't for school, etc.), and it is one of the few things that gives me real fulfillment :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the comment.<BR/><BR/>LVX,<BR/>Dean.Frater Yechidahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08630272924336872824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-965291110074390288.post-44751223105529303322008-08-17T22:36:00.000+01:002008-08-17T22:36:00.000+01:00Ave Peregrin,Thank you for the kind comments :)I l...Ave Peregrin,<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the kind comments :)<BR/><BR/>I love Blake's work. Since you mentioned his "Single Vision", I might as well share the relevant lines:<BR/><BR/>"Now I a fourfold vision see,<BR/>And a fourfold vision is given to me;<BR/>‘Tis fourfold in my supreme delight<BR/>And threefold in soft Beulah’s night<BR/>And twofold Always. May God us keep<BR/>From Single vision & Newton’s Sleep!"<BR/><BR/>LVX,<BR/>Dean.Frater Yechidahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08630272924336872824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-965291110074390288.post-92138349010379273552008-08-17T16:40:00.000+01:002008-08-17T16:40:00.000+01:00Go You!

I had a teacher who encouraged students to go deeply into doubt, for there they would find doubtlessness.
