Just read something from my yahoo groups about optimism.

"Optimism is a telling sign of maturity. The more mature you are, the more cheerful you get.”

So it is still good to be easily satisfied and be optimistic in life, always look and think on the bright side. (^_^) but bear in mind, I din say dream hor...

“One has to go through the journey of life and survive the storm-experiencing failure and success, love and hate, ups and downs, sorry and joy- before you can be confident that the future can only get brighter and happier”----housewife Esther Huang

“…. As you grow you come to see the bigger picture and no matter how bad something is, you know it happens for a reason.” Her philosophy now is “if my toenail falls off, as it does quite often, I console myself by thinking that at least I have a toe.”-----Youth@Aware President Harmin Kaur Gill

“A mature person views life experiences as learning experiences and when they are positive, she enjoys and reveals in life. When they are negative, she accepts personal responsibility and is confident she can learn from them to improve her life. When things do not get well, she looks for opportunity to succeed. The immature person curses the rain while a mature person sells umbrellas.”----Psychologist and confidence speaker Jerome Murray

The important thing to remember is that staying positive is not a lonesome thing. Not everyone, no matter how mature she is, has an umbrella for every storm cloud that rolls her way. The solution? You need to surround yourself with positive people. “I don’t see it as a personal struggle”, says Dr Geh Min. “It’s a web of support.”
