Oh my I hope not, think about the abilities we have as human for great change. I decided to join this forum to find like minded persons and see and hear different opinions. I am for sure learning that we all think differently.
Well you know what they say Zandalee - people are either a glass half full, or a glass half empty. 😉

...or, if you're a realist, it's the wrong size of glass!

Oh my goodness, really depends on the person...lol. I tend to go more positive half full.

You sense of humour..makes me giggle.

And that is so much better? What's wrong with knowing that both half empty and half full are the same amount?

Nothing 'wrong' but being optimistic is a much more enjoyable way of living life I would suggest. It's all about focus/perspective.

I appreciate that you find optimism enjoyable. But it's not more enjoyable for everyone. I'm certainly happier knowing how much I've got - which relies on knowing how big the glass is. That way, I can plan for the future and obtain more of whatever is in the glass, if I think I need it.

I didn't say I was an optimist - just defending that stance from your criticism of it. Actually I am a realist but, where we differ, is that I am quick to balance life's negativities with being grateful for all the positives that I have. We take so much for granted, e.g. just having water at the turn of a tap.
I so understand and am so grateful my self. Water coming out of the tab is a true luxury. We are blessed.

Just a statement to smile at...is it the same?

It is the same if you view it to be. Therefore, it is the same for me. Presumably, from what you have written, it is not the same for you.
Crowan, your like the man with the golden arm...a bit confusing but delightfully interesting?
