Defining Optimism

Optimism is remembering that the sun is there, when all you can see are clouds.

Optimism is growing where you are planted, even though that place is a rocky canyon wall.  It’s growing even though you are sideways because life’s winds tried to flatten you.

Optimism is believing that there is light at the end of the dark tunnel you’re in.  And knowing that the darkness has a purpose–to help you fully appreciate the light.
