“Optimism is a lens” she said, “it helps you tide over life. Isn’t it a wonder that we cannot see things beyond a certain point, and cannot hear anything with a volume less than 20 decibels?”
“I guess so. But I can feel the heartbeats, if not hear, and sometimes I question why. Imagination is deadlier than feeling, and sometimes, it leads people to unwanted realms. Visibility and clarity are better options.”
“Again, you need a lens when there is no option. It’s called optimism.”
“There are days when there is darkness all around, and even breathing feels optimistic.”

Positive thinking is the only we can do by ourselves. It’s free of costs, and brighten the view on the reality. Best wishes, Michael
