You know when optimists become pessimists?
The moment they are scared.
They don't show negativity to the outside world, however.
They don't realise it when negative thoughts poison their -otherwise- smiling mind. Unconsciously, optimists can sometimes avoid situations they fear, rather than face them. At least, when it's -even for them- difficult to see the bright side.
'Bliss of ignorance' is a blessing to those...to me. So I guess, I'm an optimist because I'm a coward?

How do you do stay cheerful when all is unavoidable? Or how would you define being optimistic?
“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” said Yoda, Jedi Master
Indeed ignorance is bliss, but I chose awareness over ignorance any time of the year. 🌎

I always thought that pessimists are people who are too lazy to even find something great about their life and this world. On the other hand, optimists, for me at least, are those who cheerish even the smallest things in their life and because of that attitude, can smile and say "life is good".
Personally, I stay cheerful by reevaluating my day - what have I eaten, what have I drank, where was I? Sadly, some do not have answers do these questions.
