Optimism cheers me On!

 Do you consider yourself an optimistic person? Or, you think you are rather 

realistic?

I tell you that's totally different, do you disagree? Read me :)

I picked a Virtues card today and this is what I got. 

"Optimism is a positive, cheerful outlook. When we are optimistic, we are hopeful

 even when others have lost faith.

 We believe that good has the power to prevail over evil.
We do not allow ourselves to be victimized by setbacks or losses.
We embrace challenges with confidence and vitality. We are solvers,

 not complainers.

 In the midst of dark times, we look to the future with a vision of

 what is possible.

 We trust that everything works together for good.
Nothing can destroy our hope."

Then there was this beautiful sentence from Kahlil Gibran
 
" The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns, the pessimist states at the 

thorns,oblivious of the rose."

And then comes the practice of Optimism

I have a positive viewpoint.
I have faith in all circumstances.
I trust in positive outcomes.
I focus on solutions rather than problems.
I see a brighter future.
My hope is resilient.

And at the very end the gratitude!

I am thankful for the gift of Optimism. 
It cheers me on!"

 Because we do have it, somewhere in us even if we have allowed our own thoughts

 and beliefs cover it.

I had to share this with you. This cards are really making me a more conscious

 person.
