sometimes i think that people mistake optimisim and idealism for naivete...people think that seeing the glass half full is just ignorance and lack of realism, but while talkin to ADINA yesterday i realized that there is nothing wrong with keeping an optimisitc point of view..while there are definetly bad things in the world, and while sometimes we have to face situations that are unpleasant, traumatic, traigc, etc.-- seeing it from a different point of view can really help you get through those troubles. i think people have always thought that i am naive..and while i admit that in a sense i do possess an air of innocence...i am no idiot. i know that evil exists in this world..i know that things arent always peachy and sweet....but i choose to face unpleasant situations with hopefulness..because in the end hope is what gets us through.i think being idealistic can help you acheive your goals and pursue your dreams...because if you go into a situation believing in yourself and in ur talents and capabilities you are bound to make your dreams come true...and im really looking forward to making my dreams come true :)
