SINCERITY

SINCERITY. This word is very clear in meaning but the action that we qualify as sincere is often not sincere. We have invented this word to convey the meaning that it conveys - but used often to camouflage the real intentions of any word, deed or action. "My sincere apologies", "My sincere wishes for you", "My sincere thanks", "Yours sincerely" - these are the common lines that all of us use. Tell me what is sincere about any of these? No doubt this sentence looks great and makes the reader comforatable that someone is sincerely trying to be something. But the fact that both the writer and and reader know is that there is nothing sincere about anything. Humans are not designed to be sincere - that is the way the chip is designed. Let us accept it. If any person is sincere to himself - that itself is great. We sincerely dont want to do anyting to anybody. We may do something under compulsion like a "good morning sir" but the reverb inside says "bastard" - there is absolutly nothing sincere about it. If you hear the reverb "bastard" and admit it within yourself that you hear the actual reverb "bastard" - there you are - you have been sincere.

We may really do or say something very sincerely - that can be identified by the absence of this word "sincerely". When the word "sincerely" appears be damn sure that this guy is not being sincere.
Now go and sincerely try to love everyone or at the least sincerely try to hate some things - and be a man to admit it within yourself. And, revel in being Sincere.
