from PSY 100

Optimistic Realist

Is there any way

to be a realist

and an optimist?

A wise person

once said that

the difference

between optimists

and pessimists 

is not the glass

-half-full-glass-

half-empty thing,

but optimists

seek solutions

to problems

whereas pessimists

put up with them.

Optimists

know the light

at the end

of the tunnel

isn’t always

a train. But

if it is,

God, like superman,

is more powerful

than a speeding

locomotive.
