The word optimism recalls me of a rhythmic
story. A story of this girl molly
Molly
was a happy monkey almost every day.
She
had a happy attitude. She had a pleasant way.
She
didn't let the little things in life make her upset,
And
things that got her down, she found quite easy to forget.
But
one day her luck changed, and it seemed everything went wrong.
She
tried to keep her smile, but she just wasn't quite that strong.
She
thought things would get better, but they kept on getting worse.
It
seemed the life she knew had just been thrown into reverse.
Her favorite friend at school was gone. She had to move
away.
And making matters worse, she lost her bracelet that same
day.
Molly forgot her homework, and she couldn't turn it in.
Then after school, she missed the bus. It seemed she
couldn't win.
As Molly walked home from her school, she couldn't help but
cry.
So much was going wrong and she could not understand why.
The next day was a bad day too, and Molly missed her friend.
She wondered if her awful luck was ever going to end.
She tripped and ripped her skirt in front of everyone at
school.
The kids all laughed and pointed, making her feel like a
fool.
She got a drop of ketchup from her burger on her shirt.
And at the water fountain she got soaked with a big squirt!
So many bad things happened, Molly almost cried once more,
but something odd occurred to her that she could not ignore.
The bad things that were happening weren't really all that
bad.
They just seemed so much worse because she let herself feel
sad.
When she saw just the bad things, life made her feel very
blue.
It wasn't just her luck that changed, her attitude changed
too.
An optimistic attitude can make a better day,
so Molly changed her outlook and her sadness went away.
She laughed at all that happened and her smile came right
back.
And things seemed pretty good again. Her life was back on
track.
Her happiness brought her new friends who loved her pleasant
cheer.
She learned to laugh when things went wrong. That gave her
less to fear.
She let go of the little things, just as she used to do.
And even when things went wrong, she was happy through and
through.
Her life was much more pleasant, but it wasn't life that
changed.
It only was her attitude, that Molly rearranged.
She saw the good in life and found that life was to enjoy.
A little optimism brings the world a lot of joy.

So as the moral
says,never to lose hope.
I personally think you
haven't lost your battle unless you yourself accept your defeat.
And accepting defeat
is losing every last inch of hope to succeed.
I dont know whether i
am politically correct or not but according to me in this world the biggest example
of an optimistic person is Adolf Hitler.
As we all know after the First World War Germany was at its back at the wall in
every aspect of their society.
Leading such a country
(though I DONT like his approach) needs next level of admiration and determination
to work hard for your country.
Determination rises
only with a rise in HOPE!
You can never learn
anything from a success story, if you want to learn something listen to their
failure stories.
Another great example
of an optimistic person is Thomas Edison.
Thomas Edison failed for
more than a thousand times after which he finally found the correct element for
the bulb.
"I have not failed. I've just found 1000 ways that won't work."
Thomas A. Edison
Trying for thousand
times needs sheer love and true determination for your work.
And who can forget our
father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi.
Great people have
reached to their heights by their determination and hard work.
And the key factor to
add to their strength to keep them going was OPTIMISM.
