I See Myself As An Optimist

2. Do you consider yourself an optimist or pessimist and why? Week Nine for Welcome to My Reality.

It all comes down to attitude. Having a positive attitude promotes optimism and that, in turn, lightens the life you live.

I have moments when negativity captures me and pulls me under - that depressive monster rears its ugly head and gathers me in. I huddle frightened in the corner. But I prefer staying positive and looking for the good in things. Keeping my attitude positive keeps that negative monster with the pessimistic streak back, his hands up over his eyes because I am blinding him with my light.

I want to live in the light. Be the light. Shine on and bring others out of their darkness and help them find the light that can burn within them as well.
