become an optimist

I found a quote today, and it said:

“Be more optimistic: Because all the people you hate are going to die eventually.”

Ha, I never realized how optimism can help my life and happiness improve myself as a whole person.

I’d prefer to start by having an open opinion of life. I’ll take what life throws at me, and I’ll be able to say honestly that the glass of water is half full. I can achieve this by working at it constantly during each day I live through. For example, today it poured while I was walking home from Wal*Mart with my friends. I thought to myself, well, at least my hair doesn’t look as bad (having curly hair in summer days at 30 degrees celcius can do wonders on my head).
