Diabetic Cyborg Life 01/21: A Sunny Night
This oxymoron represents what I’ve had with the optimism I herald and use here in my blogs. This gift of seeing hope and being optimistic is not a reason to make for more sadness as some might suppose it. Rather, positivity gives me the power to endure the darkest times I face.
Diseases, poverty, loss of a mother, troubles with health care and insurance can make anyone depressed. Yet, the optimism that I know and recite means I can bear it and keep going with some distress but not suffer full on depression. I’ve talked to families that lost hope and swear they can never hope again.
A constant stream of positivity and optimism can empower the possessors of the positive optimism to withstand all and be what they dream of becoming. The drawback being when things fall short of what was envisioned as the desired end point.
Luck, chance, happenstance, or destiny can alter plans and dreams.
However, sometimes where we wind up at the end might be better than what was desired at the start.
