Pessimistic or Optimistic?
My husband told me recently that he is more of an optimist and I am more of a pessimist. I was a bit surprised by this because until recently I have been the optimist in most situations.
The situation that my husband was referring to at the time was regarding his safety. I thought that he was lying in a ditch hurt or dead and worked myself into a panic, calling friends, police, and about to start calling hospitals when he finally came home. He said that I always assume the worst. He may have been referring specifically to this situation but until recently I have been the optimist about many other things.
As of late I haven’t had many things to be optimistic about, considering every day I don’t know what tomorrow holds for me. I guess that being said none of us really know what tomorrow holds. Right now I feel like my life is on hold and my hope is that when it starts back up I will be a better person.
For me I think in most cases I am the optimist but when it comes to my family breaking routine or acting out of character I will become the pessimist.
