I used to be personally very pessimistic when I've been suicidal, but now not anymore. Life is too beautiful and precious to be wasted. Mindfulness is just to remind yourself that your goal in life is to be happy and enjoy it fully and wholly, which I'm doing currently at the moment. Don't worry about the future or the past, just live this present moment fully and wholly, that's it, that's all. How about you? Are you more pessimistic or optimistic in life personally?

Pessimistic or Optimistic?

Pessimistically realistic. The harsh reality of life is quite simple: Life is pointless, it has no meaning or purpose, but humans, despite being fully aware of this fact, still choose to bring new humans into this world of pain and suffering.
There is absolutely nothing beautiful about life. It's one huge pile of proverbial dinosaur excrement.

Are you injured or disabled?
My back hurts a lot of the time (worked manual labor jobs my whole life) but I’m not bitter about it. It could be worse and I’m optimistic I’ll find the right chiropractor or doctor one day to fix it.
