Answers
Answer:
Optimism is like a sorcerer's stone that turns any type of despair into joy! Optimism is God's surety provided to the righteous when they fight their uphill task of surmounting the mountains of difficulties. Optimism is seeing the silver lining behind every dark cloud. Optimism is the happy patience in the midst of an endless toil. Optimism gives you the courage to keep on carrying on. No despair can ever vanquish optimism.
In the chapter ‘We are not afraid to die…’ everyone shows optimism during the challenging time. Not only the elder members of the family, but the six year old son, and the seven year old daughter also behaved so courageously and bravely in the face of the storm. The six year old son Jon reassured his dad that he was not afraid to die if he could be together with his family. So these fearless words motivated the author to do his best to save the damaged boat.
The author was really a great captain whose timely decisions helped them survive through the stormy ordeal. It was such a wise decision on his part to hire two professionals, Larry Vigil and Herb Seigler, to help them tackle the Southern Indian Ocean. They proved to be real saviours when the ship had been flooded with the sea water. They pumped like madmen to keep the water levels reasonably low. Each and every person on Wavewalker did their best to save the boat. Their courageous efforts were nothing but optimism. So, they were able to face the life-threatening situation bravely and survived the disaster.
