-what are the pro's and con'sWww@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's OK to be optimistic, but there are people who are so miserable and unhappy with their lives that they will try to rain on yours, to cause misery to you, or even to destroy you!. That's a con, if you let the person (or persons) do that to you!. Your strength is that they can't!. Their misery is all their own!. These people are around, and may come into your life!. This actually is a great opportunity to try and help them!. If you are really strong, and they are receptive, you may be able to pull it off, but if they start to drain you, then it is best to move on!. There are a small number of these people who can be intractable!. In these cases, they need more time in their life experiences to reach the realization of love, and in time, they will!. However, it may be in a future lifetime for them!.

Another con may be that your expectations may not come true, but then life has a way of turning out even better, so that con turns into a pro!.

Life is beautiful beyond words, and precious beyond any gem or possession that can be acquired or dreamed of!.

Keep that secret in your heart, and your optimism will always bring you joy and love!. This will bring more realized people to your circle, and more joy and love to all!. There! That's optimism!. The pros far outweigh the cons, which are not really cons!. Rather, they are opportunities to appreciate how wondrous life really is!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Pros: Nothing can get you down for long!. You'll never quit!. You'll always be happier!. Your positivity will rub off on your peers!.

Cons: From some of the answers here, you'll be hated for who you are!. Then again, everyone's hated by at least one other person on this planet, so it doesn't really matter now does it!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
