Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for March 21, 2019

That pretty much sums it all up.

Positivist “Things will quickly get much worse… !”.

Someone please shoot me…oh wait, they don’t shoot horses, do they?

at least that viewpoint is clearly black and white…

They told me “Cheer up! Things could be worse!”So I did, and they got worse…

The negativist’s mind is in a dark place. Or is that a darkroom?

Bwahahahha. That is brilliant. A total role reversal between pessimist & optimist. :D

Pessimist: The glass is half empty.

Optimist: The glass is half full.

Matrix fan: There is no glass.

Some people confuse pessimism with observation. They are relentlessly positive to the avoidance of real observation. My mother was like that. But then so are most humans.

Cancer you have is aggressive in your reproductive parts.

Full treatment makes you wish you were dead but survive.

(Most would rather die faster than suffer through the treatment we are told.)

3 weeks later find aggressive cancer in the liver that the previous treatments didn’t affect at all while other cancers were given toxic therapy.

Forgo any more treatment and die in a hospice in 2 months.

So who was an optimist here? The pessimist? Does it apply?

Don’t be Negative. Let’s see what develops. Some day your Prints may come.

The optimist believes this is the best of all possible worlds; the pessimist fears that it is so.

Are you feeling negative? No. Gotya!
