Optimism
15 years ago
=) Saw a good article today about Optimism and Pessimism and thoguht id write this, and replace the old one.
I Will only write the last part of it.
"at teh end of the 19th centry the author Charles Dickens said that it is the optimist that could change the world. People prostested, Optimists are only world rejecting talkers people thought. Then did Dickens take two of his friends, an optimist and pessimist to the poorhouse. Whent he pessimist got there he exclaimed quickly "What did I tell you! This is a hell hole!". Optimisted nodded and agreed and said" "This is indeed a hellhole but it is an excellent oppertunity to do smoething. We can make a differens. Now we must spring to action to make the lives of the poor better. It cannot be worse than that"
"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." — Winston S. Churchill
"You know how both life and porno movies end. The only difference is life starts with the orgasm."
"No misfortune is so bad that whining about it won’t make it worse."— Jeffrey R. Holland
The Point? =) I felt like it and keep up a smile, pull up your sleeves and start working for a better tomorrow, if one gets it better everyone else do ever so slightly aswell.

:shrug: I guess... the best path really is to walk between pessimism and optimism on the path of realism...

But you can't deny the two can overlap to an extent...

alot of things can overlap that doesnt mean they are related or affect each other
