Pessimism refers to a general belief that things will go bad or worse. A pessimist have this kind of aura that could dampen the most vibrant atmosphere; and that's me.

I am so lazy, I just watch tv and read books; barely eat and sleep.

I'm always grumpy, always angry with shouting and breaking things.

Yes, I was so reckless for I was so convinced that things will still be destroyed even if I'll take care of it; may it be tangible things or friendships/relationships.

I was so toxic.

Well, I used to be.

It wasn't easy path I had tread to be what mindset I possess right now. I've been beaten with very unfavorable circumstances that I won't live long (I can't think I must live) unless I'll see it in different light.

I am always sick physically and I do believe it has something to do with my mental health. If the heart and mind is so corrupted, it's impossible to have a healthy body.

What changed?

I changed my mind, renewed my mind; I fill it up with much goodness and I started reading positive stories, watched lots of inspirational movies. I noticed though, it doesn't help as I have always go back to how I was and yes, since I've been a God-fearing person, it stabilize it.

When people upsets me, all I think is, I should react accordingly. It doesn't always go as I think but that's where the grace of God comes in, the unlimited favor as long as I seek Him and to do what He pleases.

I'm more smiley now and I greet people well,with kindness I look at kids and animals alike. I don't hate them or think of harming them anymore.

REDEEMED PESSIMIST.

I am still a pessimist, I still think that things are getting worse, it's just that I'm redeemed/changed my mind that I face tomorrow with blessed hope.

Overwhelming ugliness and chaos in my personal space and so is the world condition but as I think there's sovereign God who sees it all, it makes me withstand it and doesn't think "it's more profitable to die" as I used to.

Bottom line:
Life will always be unfair, people are cruel and you'll always struggle; people may think what you believe in is a myth but hey, it's worth it if you'll be able to keep your sanity and live the life you have offered.
