Optimism is so essential especially when everything is pushing us in the other direction.

It’s a choice…not an easy one, but still a choice.

Good words, Todd, thank you!

Thanks Chris,

It’s tough that optimism tends to be hardest at exactly the times when we need it most.

Thanks, Todd: I needed this. (As well as the link to Michael Vörös.) You already bring a lot of optimism to my days; and strike me as an optimistic person… – the way you frame it is here, though, is particularly wonderful!

No worries Stephen.

lol, and yes, I consider myself an optimistic person. But that doesn’t always mean I’m a “positive” or happy person in the moment sometimes. 🙃

Nobody can be, I am sure: but – from what comes across on here – you do better than many!

Oh, I’m a bit more grumpy in “real life”. But I do absolutely grasp on to the “everything will be okay” idea when things get a little too dark.

Hindsight is always better than foresight.
