Pretentiously Happy

Pretentiously making people happy by praising them is awfully tiring.

1. It isn’t sincere.  It’s being truthful.
2. Feels like aimlessly feeding people’s ego – for what?
3. Definitely gives you an ounce of dumb each time you try.

But then again, there are people who needs to work that way.  Because of that, you have to bend yourself and your principles to honour them somehow – which brings to No.3.  That’s just how I feel.  Now without any idea how long I’ll be able to withstand all this.

They are just sad.
