My little granddaughter, Faith, asked me one day. "GeGe, are you happy all the time? 'Cause I always see you smiling." Thank you for this sweet review Brooke, :-) Carolyn

Thanks Sanku, I have a little granddaughter named Faith. She ask me, "Are you happy all the time, GeGe? You are always smiling." It is a good way to be, although, even I, have to face harsh reality sometimes. Thank you so much, :-) Carolyn
Comment from Gungalo
Very cute Carolyn and very now. Hope he's laughing and not crying. Now I guess that's as optimistic as they come. LOL.
Don't bother with the negative
Obsess on laughter

Thanks for the fun review. I got it from the 'laughing' section on fanart. Bless his heart, he is hilarious either way. He is holding his knee so that makes him an optimist for sure.

How else can we happy if we are not an optimist.
To be a pessimist is great with there is danger and caution is needed.
It will be great to have a pacifist inside us.
What about being a realist and and opportunist.
All in all, we have to roll them in and churn out the optimism to put a smile on our faces. :))
Great write and well plan. When is this club starting? LOL.
Cheerio, hugs and luv, bro Ritchie. :))

Comment from Joy Graham
Lovely picture, though I'm not sure if the child is laughing or crying. I'm going to be an optimist and say laughing :) i love the positive energy coming from this acrostic poem. Well done and inspiring. I think I will give optimism a try!

Comment from The Death
Hi, Carolyn.
A nice acrostic about always being optimistic in life.
In the first verse, the sense of assurance and hope deliver a strong message to uplift someone's dying spirit.
The next two verses suggest the ways to cope up with gloom and move ahead in life. You deliver a nice message with simplicity so that one can easily relate with it.
Nice presentation, though, I first thought the baby is crying...LOL.
Nice work!
Regards,
Anupam
