I will be hopeful. ;)<br /><br />I guess the question isn't so much about should we be optimistic or pessimistic it should be who will we put all of our hope and trust in? Because in the verse you put up it said that hope does not dissapoint so if we are feeling dissapointed it's not because we are being too hopeful but rather we are putting our hope in something instead of the one. Now how we do that I'm still trying to figure out. Hope you have a blessed day!Stella https://www.blogger.com/profile/02194366325687869868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3281269231770844828.post-41851190772290540442009-07-15T22:01:45.751-04:002009-07-15T22:01:45.751-04:00hmm... good thought.

I too have come to the conclusion that our optimism is in the fact that we know that God will work everything to our benefit, even if we are momentarily disappointed! <br /><br />Love you Kristin! I'm praying for you.Kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651338874475608577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3281269231770844828.post-44047905633613996512009-07-15T21:06:11.112-04:002009-07-15T21:06:11.112-04:00Does this mean that you didn't make it back to...Does this mean that you didn't make it back to camp today after all?? Well, I'd rather that you be happily healthy than feeling miserable and not being able to participate anyway. And yes, I agree. I think balance is the key. Optimism and pessimism are the extremes, but if you have a balance of them both, you'll probably end up wiser and happier. But that's just a thought, possibly derived from too many hours spent studying 18th century English literature and the Greek and Roman modes of thought. ;)Christenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13180336178045122410noreply@blogger.com
