I'm optimistic, but not blindly optimistic. There's always good in some bad that nobody can see... that just makes you have a gift everyone has secretly been wanting that doesn't have the gift... be optimistic, somebody has to do it. (SMILE)
I do not strive to ignore reality or avoid the truth of what has happened in my life. Instead I choose to face the negative situations head on and look for the good in them, as any positive person would. I choose the path in life that so few people walk down- a path on which positive thinking blooms and inspiration can be found in the darkest places. While coping with the negative in my life, I continue to strive diligently to see the good in all that is around me. I believe in chasing your dreams, and I believe in the underdog. I guess you could say I'm a little Pollyanna.
I want to share a quote I came across. "When you look for the bad in mankind expecting to find it, you surely will."
