There are two kinds of people in the world; pessimist and optimist. To sum up this post in a nut shell "pessimism sucks". Have you ever spent any amount of time around a pessimistic person? If you have you have soon found out that nothing is ever good enough or new enough. Someone always has it better than you and lifes not fair. They always get the short end of the stick. And a key attribute to pessimists is they love to bitch and moan about everyone and everything but refuse to lift a finger to help themselves. They seem to feel that since they have it oh so bad, that what they think they do deserve should be given to them. Not worked for or earned.
An optimist, on the other hand, seem to get the big picture. They see the best in every situation and even in the darkest of circumstances. Times when the pessimist sits in virtual sack cloth and says whoa is me, that optimist is getting back up and saying it will work out, things will turn around. There will be a silver lining! And genuinely looks for a bright side.
Pessimism is like cancer to the high spirits of people around them!!
