I may be doing this quiz 3 days late, but I'm "perfectly positive."<br /><br />No matter what happens, you stay optimistic and upbeat... possibly to the point of annoying others.<br />Not only do you see the silver lining - you refuse to see the dark clouds. You don't let your thoughts get negative.<br /><br />Those around you may feel like you don't take your or their problems seriously, and that may be true.<br />It's more likely, though, that you think there's more than enough negativity in the world. And you don't want to contribute to it.<br /><br />As long as you're not avoiding taking care of your problems, there's nothing wrong with all your optimism and happiness.<br />Just remember that it can seem glib to others who don't have your great outlook. Take a few minutes to empathize with them before you work on spreading cheer.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04179027379034179865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-92187939525026218232013-10-24T00:47:11.542-07:002013-10-24T00:47:11.542-07:00We all have "hot buttons" and you mentio...We all have "hot buttons" and you mentioned a couple of mine!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-29750439209149416752013-10-23T17:24:25.962-07:002013-10-23T17:24:25.962-07:00I came out also being generally good-natured, whic...I came out also being generally good-natured, which is true. I usually see good aspects of situations, but bad things can be daunting. I do find though that as I get older, I do not have the patience I used to have and stress gets to me more.<br /><br />But my attitude about life is pretty optimistic. Now if we were talking about the government shutdown or war, that would be a different story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-70598976517104819692013-10-22T10:46:33.334-07:002013-10-22T10:46:33.334-07:00And here I thought you were always good-natured, K...And here I thought you were always good-natured, Kathy!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-39476838499642313972013-10-22T04:32:30.986-07:002013-10-22T04:32:30.986-07:00I'm generally good-natured too!I'm generally good-natured too!bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.com
