Which is better?

My topic is nothing to do with alcohol.

It’s just to do with our spirits as human beings.

I am talking about being optimistic or pessimistic.

Is it not better to look at things on the brighter side than to expect the worst?

Pessimists are angry for being labelled negatively and they wish to be called ‘realistic’

Pessimists even argue that they are getting mentally and physically prepared to face the situation so that there is no question of any disappointment.

Hmm… their point of view is also correct.

“One day, someone showed me a glass of water that was half full.

And he said, “Is it half full or half empty?” So, I drank the water. No

more problem” Alexander Jodorowsky
