THESE ARE SME PIECES OF INFO. ON WHAT U WNTED...
***Optimistic people see the best in the world. Optimistic ideas have been around for a while — Voltaire's "Candide" (1759) mocked them thoroughly. Here's an optimistic quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson: "Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year." Here are some more recent examples from the news:-
✓"It's been so positive…He's always optimistic, always hungry for the next one."
✓"It's an optimistic assessment that clashes hard with the reality on the ground."
°Abandon all hope ye who enter here! A pessimistic person expects the worst in every situation. Doom and gloom rule a pessimistic attitude. In business, a pessimistic mood prevents people from investing. If you're pessimistic, you see a beautiful waterfall and assume you're going to die in it. Here are some examples of the word:
✓"Designed to cope with the most pessimistic nightmare of an apocalypse, a day spent here is not destined to be uplifting."
✓"There has also been a smaller—yet still statistically significant—rise in the frequency of negative words, such as 'disappointing' and 'pessimistic'."
°These words often show up together:
✓"And my personal philosophy is I'd rather be optimistic and wrong rather than pessimistic and right."
✓ "A higher life expectancy estimate is optimistic for the human condition, but pessimistic for the Social Security Trust Fund."
°Most people are a little of both, and you can certainly be optimistic — you just learned new words! Or pessimistic — you'll probably just forget them, though....!!.
