Day 4784: Optimism

Despite everything that’s happening in the USA, I still wake up with optimism and choose to share that optimism with others.

I have optimism that you’ll agree that this is a good image for a blog post about optimism.

.

I captured that image yesterday on my way to an acupuncture appointment; I still have optimism about reducing the annoying clicking noises I hear whenever I talk or sing.

I also have optimism that the taped episode about my original songs will air on the Therapist Uncensored podcast soon.

I have optimism that my return to the Jam’n Java Open Mic tonight will go well.

And I have optimism that I might get a show at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

I am holding on to optimism while also practicing radical acceptance that outcomes might not be what I hope. I have optimism that I can maintain this tricky balance well enough.

Do you see optimism in my other images for today?

.

I have optimism that I’ll find something worth sharing when I search for “optimism” on YouTube.

.

My optimism was rewarded and I found this too!

.

Thanks to all who are here for this optimism post, including YOU!
