There's nothing inherently wrong with choosing a rosier outlook on life. Good/bad qualities are all confined to the eye of the beholder while the world outside merely is. A life is filled with so many events, great and large, that, depending on one's own predisposition at the time, only events of a certain emotional type or magnitude will linger in mind over the course of the day, coloring one's mental record with that particular bias. If one chooses to willfully focus on the details that bring about a positive and effective attitude then one would seem to be better off than a mere passive receiver. The inherent risk, of course, is that in choosing what to focus on, one may carry it too far by actively disregarding or ignoring the details that they find disagreeable or inconvenient, leading to a disconnect, mistaking their chosen perception of reality for reality itself, seeing a full bag and presuming that the contents will just be more bag.




Granted, it's all bags anyway when you get down to it.
