I believe pessimism to be the same as realism.
Hope for the best, expect the worst.
It's important not to lose all hope- otherwise, what reason is there to live?
Are you simply persisting purely for biological want?
Instinctive drive to see another day?
I consider myself to be fairly negative and a bit of a misanthrope- but even I prefer to live for other reason than to not die.
I have reasons to live, I enjoy multiple art forms. Besides suicide would take too much effort, more than I could muster.
Besides sometimes I can be pleasantly surprised of how things turn out.
I've always been a pessimist thou, and rather negatively focused.
