Today I am feeling optimistic. Sometimes it’s just a choice to wake up and feel like it will be a good day, regardless of whether or not there is a reason for it.
As I think about that more, it seems like that’s a defining characteristic of optimism. If we wake up in the morning with a multitude of amazing things on the schedule or in the works, what need do we have to be optimistic, because good things are ALREADY happening. Optimism is synonymous with faith. The frame of mind that good things will come about even though we don’t really have any tangible evidence.
