4. I think it's coming from the Occupation, Everywhere
You can't keep something like this up and be cynical at the same time.

3. Cynical me wishes you would have come to that mind set earlier.
But I am glad you are back along with everyone else who has lost their hope. Let's get to work, we sure have a lot of it to do in the next 13 months.

5. I've been through all five stages in Kübler-Ross
I've accepted where things are, and whether we descend much further or begin to ascend, in time, things will get better.

OWS has given me a lot of hope.
