Optimism by SonofIssachar(op): 11:14pm On Nov 06, 2014
- Author Unknown

In order to better understand people’s views of the world, a researcher once placed two children, one a pessimist and the other an optimist, alone in separate rooms.

The pessimist was placed in a colourful room full of all kinds of imaginative toys, while the optimist was put in a room filled with horse manure.

The first child played in the room for a little while, but soon came to the door asking to leave because the toys were boring and because they broke too easily.

Likewise, the young optimist soon came to the door, but rather than asking to leave, she asked for a shovel.

Of course, the researcher asked the child why she wanted a shovel.

She replied, “With all this manure around, I know that there must be a pony in here somewhere.”

Life is as you choose see it.

Meditation: But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” – Romans 10:16

You will succeed in Jesus Name!
