Are you Optimistic or Pessimistic?
Optimistic or Pessimistic? Which one falls into your day to day life?
I haven't blogged for a while for a number of reasons which i wont get deeply into for this post. During that time i have experienced both optimistic and pessimistic views. Not only have i consumed myself with these views, i have also noticed the views of others around me.
What is Optimism and Pessimism?
Optimistic = an individual that is hopeful and confident about the future.
Pessimistic = the anticipation of an individual of undesirable outcomes in life that outweigh the good or luxuries.

Due to recent events which have occurred in my life, i have began to notice both the pessimistic and optimistic attitudes which have surrounded these events. I was recently in a minor car accident, luckily neither my boyfriend and i were severely harmed. My car was damaged and whilst it was being repaired i was thankfully provided with a courtesy car.
At this point, i began to feel both pessimistic and optimistic views arise about the accident which i was involved in.
I felt that not only my neighbors but also my family were pessimistic about the courtesy car. I was confused.. was it a sense of jealousy? Were they jealous that i am only 19 and was driving a nicer car then they were? I didn't know. However, i did know that never whilst driving that car did i feel that anyone had a sense of happiness for me; no one had an optimistic attitude towards me and didn't realise that without it i wouldn't be able to keep attending university. Instead, everyone was pessimistic about me being provided with the car.
This got me thinking...in this current society it seems to be impossible for anyone to be happy and optimistic for one another. I can admit that even i am heavily pessimistic most of the time; but after recent events i have decided to change my views. I have realised that it is important to be optimistic in life, not only for yourself but for the others around you. A pessimistic attitude will have a negative effect yourself alongside friends and family. Instead...you should make an optimistic attitude have a positive effect yourself and also friends and family.

Let me ask you, how would you feel if you lived next door to me? Would you have been optimistic or pessimistic about me being provided with the car? And... what is your opinion on the views of this current society? Do you think we live in a heavily pessimistic world? I would love to hear your views and opinions on this matter :)
Thank you for taking the time to read this post, apologies for the lack of consistency throughout; i decided to write this post without much thought or planning beforehand.
