is important when you first open your eyes for a day. lika a cup of coffee. just smile and jump into your clothes. get your ass out of the house and share all of it with every single person you see. smile as wide as you can. laugh. roll on the streets. be optimistic about everything.

Its what motivates us to do what we have to, what makes us who we are. Its what makes rything in life seem so much brighter and wonderful. Sometimes it seems li you can run out of it but in truth its always there just hidden inside of you. It makes you see things brigher and fun even when life might not be so amazing, he cup half full.

Optimism is refusing to recognize that the human race is not on an upward trend.

Optimism wasn’t my best trait. It wasn’t actually a trait of mine at all. Whenever something went wrong, black clouds lingered over for as long as the reminder of that one wrong thing lived in my memory. Whenever something went right, it was just pure luck and it was bound to be ruined by the black clouds, because it was destiny that always played against me.
I think you should be optimistic about everything. About your present and your future. Positive emotions always over come negative emotions. Optimism is one of the few things you can promise your self.
Amanda
To be optimistic means to see not a glass half-way empty, but a glass half-way full. It is easier to live with this kind of attitude. Instead of picking and choosing to see negative things, it’s better to find something positive about anything in your life.
icebaby
optimism only reminds me of the sick state this country is in. children are told they can be whatever they might apply them self to be because they are god’s gift to the world. teenage girls are told they can take advantage of any man by accusation of rape. optimism is a crutch for those who can’t expect the worst and be surprised by the best. cynicism lets people feel naturally about what happens to them: the worst.
Optimism is usually thought of as an inherent characteristic in people. But I believe that optimism can be socially cultivated. Thus, optimism can be increased and make someone’s life better.Yes.
icebaby
I used to be so optimistic. A beaming smile that brightened everyone’s day. But the clouds of adulthood have hidden that glow behind a veil of shadow and truth… life isn’t all sunshine and daisies.
But she… she makes everything worthwhile. A reason for me to smile every now and then, even if I don’t mean it.
wake up in the morning to realize today is a new day. Whatever happened yesterday no longer matters. Eat, pray and love. The birds are singing and the leaves are rustling. Optimism lives in the air, in a call i receive from my special one.

as i read the word optimism, the idea of narcissism kicks in and boots the cheery idea of a happy go lucky world where everything is right the fuck out of my head. optimism is a concept that sets everyone up to fail. those who are optimistic expect something out of everyone and not to give anything, for that wouldn’t be as good.
walter sobchack
Whenever someone shows nothing but negativity, no one likes them. It’s almost as though they alienate everyone around them. Optimism is exactly like me. I am always happy, I smile, and I know that everyone will smile back. You should never let negativity rule your world, instead use optimism to make everything great.
Sarah
Optimism is very rare but we should all be optimistic… it is very hard when the word is such a pessimisstic place…
RMG
I believe in optimism. I also believe it can be one of the most difficult things to achieve a great state of optimism.
a bright and beautiful thing. the future the way you see it. the glass is always half full. the sun shines down and it will all be okay. what a wonderful day.
Beckie
It was a bright day. Sunnier than it had been in months, too. She had no reason not to enjoy and seize the day. She had the whole world at her fingertips, it seemed. But no, she spent the day inside, wallowing and dry heaving with anxiety. He had left her and from that moment, it seemed like all the optimism in her world had just been sucked out.
I want to keep hoping, because to lose hope is to admit that I don’t know where I’m going with my life. I want to keep hope, because if I keep my chin up, I can ignore the fact that I’m walking through life without knowing what I’m putting my feet in. If I keep hoping, I can ignore the fact, maybe, that at heart I’m really just a pessimist, and thinking of everything that can go wrong. Optimism is nice, see, because sometimes, I get all excited and decide that maybe there’s really something possible that I didn’t see before. It’s a bit of light just for me.
TO believe in yourself , TO believe in what u believe, To have faith in ur thoughts & acts..and a charm to make ur words into action is what optimism is.
Shruti
Be happy, she said.
It’s only death. It’s only fear. It’s only the end of everything you know.
Be happy.
This is what optimism is.
He shakes his head.
This is what stupidity is, he says.
If I numb it enough, she says, it won’t hurt. You can smile then.
I don’t really have anything to say about optimist. I don’t like it and I don’t think it should even exist because all it does it get people that don’t matter psyched about things that don’t matter and everyone ends up being disappointed. Optimism is probably the most annoying thing on earth. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.
Mariah
I am not very optimistic. I usually think that everything around me will eventually fall apart or go wrong. I have little hope for humanity. That includes my friend and family (neither of which are particularly intelligent). I say the word “hate” all the time. I don’t really mean it. I
Mariah
either way you look at it, the glass is half full. half water, half air. there’s no reason to ever give up on life.
I think that a positive outlook on life is absolutely necessary for happiness. Someone once said that if you shoot for the moon and miss, at least you’ll land on a star. I think that if you set the bar high and miss, you’ll end up getting something better than if you set the bar low in the first place, ya dig? For example, if you’re pessimistic, you stand in the bar and say, “that guy who’s a ten will never talk to me. I’ll talk to this four.” Then you get stories about weird pizza deliveries all night. Instead, be optimistic and go talk to the ten! At least you tried! The worst that can happen is that you get to look at him up close for a few seconds before a rejection, and then you can sit around and listen to four’s stories. Or maybe, just maybe, he may actually talk to you. Maybe, you’ll have a connection. And THAT is the value of optimism.
Sam
Well I have always said the glass is half full, even if he doesn’t agree with me. I don’t know if he does or not but I’m sticking to that opinion, because I honestly believe everything in life will work out eventually. Could I date a pessimist–again? I don’t think I can handle it. The negativity, looking on the darker side of things. For me, that attitude is almost impossible to be around for very long. I’m an optimist.
Kayleigh
Optimism.
What a peculiar, little word. Aye, how it comes and goes, that is. When the world shines rays of bliss, o’ how we’re all optimists. But, in the pale shadows of a “clearless”, moonless night sky, it’s laughable. Ironic, isn’t it? Pessimism clearly sides with the encompassing skies.
Iceman
Everyone needs lots of optimism at this time of year, for it is the greatest time of year. Cheery, festive, fun, warm, joyful holidays :)
Mary Sue couldn’t kid herself any longer. Her false optimism was wearing out and so was her marriage. She sighed as she looked over yet another memo on yet another business deal. Was this really what was consuming all her time? Had she really allowed her work to completely rule her life. She thought about her daughters for a moment–Angela and Lilith. Did they think of her as much of a mother at all?
Shazi
to think positive at all times
to have hope things will change
to be happy no matter the
circumstance
other options no longer matter
because you are there
if it weren’t for being optimistic, i would have made many stupid decisions.
transferring schools, dropping out… maybe even committing suicide.
optimism keeps alot of ppl alive.
Christian Williams
I wish I was more optimistic.. I always think for the worst. It’s something that I need to work on, something I need to have more of!
Kat
Optimism. The outlook on life that was drilled out of you at Hattings. There was to be no optimism, no idealism, no hopefulness, no big dreams at Hattings. Only ‘realism’. Realism. He scoffed. It wasn’t realism, it wasn’t even pessimism, it was resigning yourself into the thinking that your whole life up until was silly, full of mindless musings, and that when you finished at Hattings there would be no opportunities for you, no happiness – just dreary, old life.
Smething I feel when everything is going my way when I’ve done some pretty hard work and the results have shown. I am generally optimistic by nature, though. I also enjoy optimism in other people ires me to be more ocnfident in my own
Optimism is the key to trying to get something right or going. Optimmism often drivees perseverance and infects others to persevere as well. If we wree all optimiic by nature, we might make a bewouldn’t give up so easily.
Sophia
This is what I feel now. Our friendship is stronger than this. We’ll get through it. If we can get through suicidal thoughts and abuse from others and all manners of cruelties, we can endure this challenge. I love him too much to let him go.
I felt so happy the day that I first got the text. I was going to have a new boyfriend. The world seemed like everything was going to be good from now on. Things would be great. Someone to love me, someone to listen to my jokes, to by a sympathetic ear when I rambled or to have little secret pet names and conversations with. Someone who could just be my friend. That’s what I thought I would be getting. That’s what I thought…
Shannon H
i used to be an optimist then i realized that im never going to achieve all the things that i want to achieve. time to prioritize.
chloe
I thougth before this word was something different. But now I know what it is! HAh! Well, My….uhm, person I know aka ANNIKA, is not optimistic. She is UGH. I REALLY do not like her. HA. (: So ya. Like, shes bleh.
optimism is a delusion. a comfort. the world may not be perfect, but pretending that it is won’t get anyone anywhere. depressed people may not seem as happy as the optimists, but they’re happiness is real, not a delusion
yndi halda
I have no clue what this word means; Is it like the verb/adj. Optimstic ? I am confused and tired… Whats the next word ? Is it sprinkles ? Yummm. (:
Candee.
I…….sont know what this word is. But speaking of words, I just went to this website and asopted a word! BIG words that mean funnny stuff… lol idkk. But One was Pantdress; like a jumpsuit(:
I think some jumpsuits are cute.
