Are you an Optimist?

[Silver]

I am an eternally pessimistic individual who always, pardon the cliche, sees the glass half empty. My pessimism does not make me unhappy, however. Rather the opposite, in fact. I am perfectly content in my pessimism and I view it as me being more realistic in a world where happiness is ninety percent perfection and only ten percent reality. I would rather not lie to myself by plastering a false smile on my face and announcing to the world that "I'm good" to people's ever inane question of how I am doing when the strangers truly do not care about me in the slightest. As far as I am concerned, false smiles and questions of a mundane and unneeded societal nature are signs of an unhealthy person.
