What about this: can someone be cheerfully pessimistic?


it beats grumpily optimistic, so yeah, why not lol

I like positivity, no time for negativity, the glass is half full.

There is a middle ground:
Indifference.
That's where ya don't care if the glass is half full or half empty and possibly that there is a glass at all.

Both.

The simple reality is that the glass is both half-full AND half-empty.
Anything less is not telling the complete story.



I tend to see things for what they are not what they could be..


I tend to see both.


tomorrow's future looks bright but... when I really look hard at it im doubtful...is that wrong.?..


It's not wrong if you are simply considering all the possibilities.

I am mostly a very positive optimistic person, but I also have moments where I am not.
That's okay, that's how the new can come into your life.
If everything was always good only it'd get awfully boring and you'd not have opportunities to new things.
I learnt that one from Abraham Hicks and it is true: when there's a not so good moment you get a desire for something different. That's how you grow.
It does require, however, to not be a serial pessimist as then you cannot grab the wonderful moments.

:thumbsup: I agree, that's usually how I see things...

Except right now... the summer salad I ordered and brought home has watermelon on it instead of the strawberries I ordered grumble

laugh Still delicious! And since it's my workplace, I'll get the strawberries later.

I think some forget one important fact. The glass is refillable :grin:. No matter what you can pour it out and start fresh.

Aye. But I should wash my glass out with bleach and rinse it properly, before re using it :wink:

Although we all have our low points, where life has given us a good and thorough kicking, I'm generally an optimist. Then again I'm quite good at optimizing my life laugh

Step one : buy glass half the size of the one you have.
Step two : pour in contents of original glass.
Step three :throw original glass in trash.
Step four :look at new glass.
What do you see?
A full glass.
It's what you make it

That I could follow, unlike the scene in Die Hard with a Vengeance where they have to use all the cans at the fountain the in the park to end up with only 1 liter.
Even after all these years I do NOT get it, hahaha. Had it been me the bomb would've gone off. I'd simply have run, lol.
