Just something to ponder....

 

Pessimism is actually stressful and hard on the body. Studies have shown that pessimists have more physical illnesses and die at a younger age than optimists. Many people think that if they're an optimist or pessimist, it's a permanent condition. Not so. Optimists are not born, they're trained that way. (The same is true of pessimists.) As children, we might pattern ourselves after the way a parent, friend, or teacher acted towards life; or we might choose the opposite approach. Either way, we learn to either look at the shadow or at the sunny side of life.

 

Being optimistic doesn't mean that a person wears rose-colored glasses and never recognizes that something is difficult, hurtful, or sad. It just means that they don't dwell on it. They choose to focus on the good in life, and look for a way for things to improve. In doing so, they're instructing their creative mind to find a way to turn the obstacles into a benefit. The Chinese character for "challenge" is the same as the character for "opportunity."

 

....cheer up people, you're killing yourselves :P !
