Ohhhhh Strawbridge, I just read your piece, Optimism is Hard. You have stimulated thought, as is your wont. I will respond on a Note for all to read.

Thanks for articulating this so well. You’re right; it’s all part of humanity that we can embrace. And while I have a tendency (and possibly a learned behavior) toward pessimism, I often try to think outside the glass. If the world favors optimism, and leaves pessimists with little hope, then I’m going to find something else to drink.

I agree. Thanks for reading. I noticed we have things in common while reading your profile. I also am an HSP.
