Hi all! Just wanted some advice on my essay. For a supplement, I wanted to write about being cynical - of how as you grow up you become less ignorant of issues in the world and become more cynical as a person. However, I would make a distinction between being cynical versus being jaded, and that rather than cynicism being a weakness it is in fact a strength. I’ll write about how being cynical has helped me navigate and have a positive impact on my life.
