RE: Illustrated Closet Negativism
It's a good article but I can find a vital flaw in your logic. You've made the assumption that being happy and optimistic is always the best way to be. In my country there is a saying that,
"The Irish are never happy unless they are miserable."
Pessimism is a mental attitude in which an undesirable outcome is anticipated from a given situation. Pessimists tend to focus on the negatives of life in general.
Sometimes it's ok to be negative and grumpy. It's good for the soul. People who are overly happy and optimistic tend to scare us over here. It's just not natural. There needs to be a nice balance.
Not at all, dear friend, what I say is that you always have to have a balance, between what is the positivism and the negativism that we all have inside. Being constantly negative can make you distort your notion of reality and be constantly positive can also make you lose the notion of what is real and, on the contrary, I like to share that phrase with me, in fact, is quite interesting. . Precisely how you finally say that the existence of a balance is extremely fundamental. Maybe I did not know how to explain well up there. Thanks for your comment and for seeing my content. Regards!
