Optimists enrich the present, enhance the future, challenge the improbable and attain the impossible.
—William Arthur
I love this quote, perhaps because it fits me and is something I aspire to every day.
I've been called an optimist throughout my life. On occasion I've been told to take off my rose-colored glasses and see someone else's reality. I do see others' realities. I see people who struggle with being positive, but I choose not to join them.
Do I look at the world with a positive attitude and through rose-colored glasses? Well, yes, I do! It's my choice each day to show others how to appreciate the day we have and how to make the best of each situation and event.
Perhaps being an optimist is a defense mechanism, but for me it's the only way I know how to be myself.
For all you optimists, don't ever give up your rose-colored glasses. The world needs your ongoing positive attitude to make our future better.
