competition in the barnyard came to a screeching halt
after the farmer brought in his contestant, a male peacock
no fair! We should not have to compete with him!
He’s as fancy as a drag queen, and twice as arrogant!
Do you give up? Asked the farmer.
No, the hens and the old rooster said.
They were discouraged and disgruntled.
Who is the judge? Asked a wandering cardinal.
The farmer, the rooster told him.
How can you ever expect to win then?
We are optimists.

May we be blessed to acknowledge all the wonders in our life
that have, for us, thus far accrued…
and to begin each day with a word of thanks…
and thoughts of gratitude.
Today I’m thankful for optimists….
yes, those who look on the bright side of life… I salute…
The ones who are never be afraid to go out on a limb
because they know…
that’s…where you usually find the fruit

Are you a member of the Army of Optimists
You should check it out, sure beats being a pessimist
The sun always shines
Drinking fine wine
Life's what you make it... you could choose to be a microbiologist

I'm tired of fighting.
I'm tired of trying.
Tired of hoping,
And coping,
When you leave me crying.
