Sincerity::Is it a lost word!!

Hi people
Life's pretty cool; My exam yest was pretty cool thx to your prayers.Yesterday as i was completely engrossed in doin my prog, for a moment i was wondering if i was gonna enter the monitor;anywayz i couldnt help noticing a few "sincere" friends of mine slowly removing the most boring and irritating media of our times "The floppy" and without the notice of anyone copying their problem from it.
But they couldnt escape my eyes and when they saw me noticing them, they obviously offered me too. But i bluntly refused saying ,I would rather fail ,than resort to such means. Although the external examiner and internal appreciated my program i couldnt help feeling angry when they did theirs too, it was as if an insult to all those people who actually worked hard and honestly.
After the examination i was confronted by one of my able and "sincere" friends saying in a race the way u take up doesnt matter it is finally the destination that matters. The examiners are least bothered as to how much hardwork u have put in but what matters is ur output, at the end of the day "ur program should work".
But i defended myself saying that above everything forget the fact of the output or the program or even the vivas what matters is the internal satisfaction of achieving something. Even though an examination is like a small issue, the smile which comes to ur face when ur program gives valid output and the self-confidence it boosts is what matters at the end of the day. Your heart gives out a silent squeak saying 'i did it!" and says a silent prayer thanking the almighty for helping you and honouring ur hardwork! At the end of the day u sleep with a clear conscience !
It is very sad that educated and able people have such cynical thoughts and there is no one to correct them. They forget for a while that even though the examiners arent watching far above someone is watching and entering these acts of yours. Forget the punishments but not for once should u hurt the creater after all whatever u r today is all becoz of Him.
The arguement with my friend continued almost for an hour and at the end of the day i wasnt able to convince him but deep down, even his heart and conscience would have said "i agree"
