I think it depends upon the intensity of "feeling" or emotions that an individual is feeling!. For instance I am an optimist person, but it does not mean I am always "happy"!. It is very difficult for anyone to sustain a high level of happiness all of the time, it is dependent upon intensity!. I believe when an individual is at their highest peak of happiest (say something just magnificent happened) then I do believe they perceive the world in that same matter!.!.!. the sun shines brighter, the sky a beautiful color of blue!. Likewise, when a person is very depressed and very low on the scale of happiness they see the world as dark!.

Now I do believe the key though is "balance" in life!. It is neither healthy to constantly have your head in the clouds, nor healthy to see the world as the darkest place!. I can reach a comfortable level of happiness and still see the reality in life of wonderful and magnificent versus the harsh negatives that happen!. It is only when something really grand happens that shoots my emotional level to the tip of the scale that it can cloud my vision and cause an effect to change the way I see the world!.

Your mood affects how you interpret what your senses detect!.

When you're happy, the day seems just a little brighter, that song sounds just a little more joyous, and that glass of water taste just a little more refreshing!.

When you're sad, your senses seem dulled, so your outlook on the world is dulled as well!.

Yes, but I believe that there is more to it!. I believe that you attract what you feel to you!.
For example!.!.!. When you are happy, and nothing can ruin your happiness, ever notice that almost everything seems to go right!?
Or, when one thing goes wrong in the day, ever notice that everything else does to!?
Or how about when you are blue, sad, or depressed, it seems like just about every one around you is having something going on with them to make them sad to!?

I believe that you can change not only what you see, but what you get by choosing not to let things get to you and by being grateful for the things that go right in your life!.

I don't know if it works for every one, but I have noticed it working in my life a lot!.
Edit: I almost forgot!.!.!. I also believe (yes this can apply to emotion and world view) That you need to be the change that you wish to see in others, otherwise, it isn't going to change on either side!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't believe so!. That would mean an optimist can't get depressed and everyone gets depressed!. Emotions change with situations, chemical changes and etc!. Peoples view of the world seems to remain the same!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Im relatively happy and i am aware of trouble in the world!. but i mostly see it as a place that would be amazing without humans!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I suppose that could be the case at times but often the way you see the world affects the way you feel!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
