The Wisdom Of Pessimism

Are you a pessimist or are you an optimist?

Im pretty optimistic but I can be pessimistic at times,I watched this video and personally it made me chuckle a little. .

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

I'm an aggressivist. I see the worse and want to bash people for it.

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

I'm a pessimist in the short-term, but an optimist for the "big picture".

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

It made me smile too Aysa. I'm a bit of a pessimist, but I like to think I retain my humour (albeit black humour) about it all!

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

Hmm will keep out of your way then MJK lol

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

I think a bit of "black humour " is essential in life too Indigo,I think it helps to be able to laugh in certain dire situations .

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

Im afraid im the total opposite for the "big picture" Cam im very pessimistic where thats concerned..I dont hold out great hope for things all turning out well

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

I've made it this far despite all my worries, fears, and anxieties. And so I have gradually increased my faith for the future. It's an incremental and cumulative process and it happens without one even being aware of it.

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

Ahh sorry Cam I thought you were meaning the "big picture" as in the world and not just personally...yes Im optimistic for myself just NOT for the world

Re: The Wisdom Of Pessimism

I think every day is going to be sh**, if I'm wrong it's a bonus and if I'm right it's a bonus because I was right!
