hmm........pessimism sucks....does it really......i dont think so....i hav othr opinions of my own.......
accordin 2 me...it is optimism tat sux ......big time........its d lesson tat life has tot me....(i talk like an old guy....but i aint.iwen i say life.i mean till now!!)...."wishful thinkin leads 2 disappointment".
wanna kno how.....read on.....u'll kno......
u c...pessimism accordin 2 me...is being somethn close 2 realism......unlike optimism which is like d more rosier version of life.........which unfortunately is not d truth....optimism is a way of blinding,blindfolding ourselves from seeing d truth...which brings us 2 d adage tat "truth is bitter"......and thereby most of d optimist's end up getting disappointed....atleast it hppns 2 d ppl who think of d more positive aspect of things....all they r left with is d feelin of discontent and sadness...
In d case of pessimist's ......d scenario is diff....pessimism is a way of realising d truth...d truth tat life is bitter.and tat life is full of surprises....bad ones on tat...besides.....pessimist's buffer themselves from d damage caused by d so called "blows"(low one's) of life.....lemme consider an example 2 make it more understandable........
there r 2 students A n B.......let A be the foolish optimist.....B be the smart pessimist...
now let us assume tat they hav written thier xamz....and they r waitin 4 thier results....
A speaks in a way tat "im sure of getting 90%........"..while B sez "i donno....guess i'll get 50%"...
wen d results were out.....A got 80%.........n B got 75%........now u ppl decide.........who'll b happy?? d guy who tat he'll get 90 n got less....or d one who got more than he tot.he wud..this proves tat optimism is really a dumb way of livin d life.....it jus seez d petals of d rose and fails 2 c d thorns......which unfortunately.....d latter constituting d majority.....
One more aspect of pessimism is tat..u can handle anythn bad with elan..in other words .it prepares u 4 d worst things ahead....4 e.g : if u prepare urself 4 some kinda sports meet...and as v all kno.,winning aint possible always......so v may lose..u may fail 2 get selected(instead i prefer d word "rejected")......in this case...only d pessimists can handle it better......ofcourse i wanna xclude d stupid "super"optimists who feel tat..."yes....i hav wat it takes.....i'll win d next time"....
4get bout em....they r consummate fools......i dont wanna talk bout em....
so wat i wanna conclude is....
* pessimism is way way better than optimism
* pessimism is like a cushion.....makes ur fall less painful....
*pessimism makes u realise d truth tat "life is full of roses...with thorns being more than petals"
last but not d least......
"WISHFUL THINKING LEADS ONLY TO DISAPPOINTMENT"
now i kno many ppl fuming over me........[but who cares,atleast i dont]....chill out....drink a glass of water or two....wake up atleast now n smell d coffee......life aint petals alone.........who knows.....d fan above u may fall on ur head or d innocuous insect tat u jus crushed-may haunt u!!!!!!!!!......so b prepared 4 d worst and let pessimism take care of d rest......
xpect d unexpected........in d case of optimism,,,,
unexpected is d xpected......in d case of pessimism......!!!

hahahaha nice post........but all that it shows to me is that you are afraid of being hurt and prefer taking the easy route out by thinking negaive in the beginning itself........its like comming out of a relationship even before you get into it.....an optimist has some experiences through which he learns...all that a pessimist does is run away from things by thinking negative......and being pessimistic does not mean that u are any close to reality than the optimists....and i am not saying that optimists are completely realistic either........this topic could on and i could argue longer.....but.....guess u have had enough of it already ;)
nice post... but for ur age.. u really shud be more optimistic.. anyways.. keep it flowing!!
u ve got a real horrible opinion bout optimism...
it aint tht bad.. n it aint d way u think it to be...
its not tht d optimists always expect a positive result..its jus tat they accept n get along wit whatevr result dey get n do not look bak..!!
