Are you an optimist or pessimist?

Lila Belle — Fri, 27 Jan 2017 03:40:43 GMT

My optimism, which i've always held onto is flagging. But I'm not giving up.

You?

I'd say I'm mostly an optimist but must say this past week has been a real test. I'm not saying anything more than that. Some people will get what I'm talking about and some won't.

Always will be optimistic. When my glass is half full, I either pour it into a smaller glass or fill it back up!

Optimistic and while sometimes I let doubt crawl in, I'm able to pull out of it

A friend once described me as a cynical optimist.

I try my best to be an optimist, in spite of so many trying times over the past year, regarding loved ones.

2 of the 5 are thriving...now I only have 3 to worry about. I guess, being an optimist, I could say that things are getting better?

Each day is a gift, that's why its called the present.

I prefer to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, latch on to the affirmative, and don't mess with Mr. In Between

I am going for euphorically optimistic!

I 'm a little bit of both, I guess I'm a realist, but I try to be hopeful.

Everyones so hopeful. I wish I could say I was or am. Afraid I have to say pessimist.

Total optimist. My glass is always 1/2 full if not more. I go through life with a bit of blinders on but that is fine by me. I will find the good part to about everything. I am one of the happiest people you will ever meet and I want to be remembered that way.

I'm a pessimist. I always look at things from a worst case scenario.

I am a pessimist about most things. Always have been and probably always will be. But this week I am truly, undeniably, up in the clouds, flying-high optimistic.

Optimistic.

I believe we can choose to be either one and it's how we take on life experiences and our surroundings that either makes us stronger or weakens us with worrry and fear. I won't let the latter beat me down.
