Member Quotes About Pessimist

Quote Left There will always be people for whom (no matter how sweet the blessings), the cup is half empty. For these chronic pessimists, I say try the power of two P-words: first and foremost; prayer, and secondly; positive thinking. Focus on the blessings God has given, and even though the cup may not be running over, give thanks for the portion that is half full. Things could always be worse! Quote Right

Sadly, the things you ought to know, which you now think you do not know, are far greater than the things you think you know. Always focus - ALWAYS REFLECT, ... or else you will REGRET. (The Pessimistic Philanthropist) Quote Right
