Honesty is the best policy. I think that's something father told me once. I also believe in optimism and hope for the future, if only for the sake of others. I don't like to dampen peoples' spirits by being a downer, as often as I may be one. I do try to appear pleasant and cheerful in public.
But if that's not how I actually feel, then is it dishonest? To appear happy for the sake of others?
