I’m experimenting here, but I’m deeming December as the month of optimism.  Many will call it naive. Others may say it is a pipe dream. But, I think that it will produce positive results, reduce stress + anxiety, and make it a far better month all around.  It’s not going to be easy to take this stance – the stock market rose 17% over the past 5 business days, and media is refusing to write about anything that doesn’t focus on “disaster”, “crisis”, or “depression.”  F*** it – I’m going with optimism – join me – it’s the good side of life.

BTW – today is Haiku Monday, so write about some December optimistic memories, experiences, or themes.

I believe, believe
in optimism optimism
Life is better that way
