Are people more optimistic or have they become more Pecimistic THESE days?

When I was a young kid, I was optimistic, but as life Sunk in and reality hut. I started to be more realistic and began setting realistic goals. Reality made me become more Pecimistic due to having to work, and to have duties, responsibilities and daily challenges, I realised that to win, I would have to be Pecimistic due to my current situation

I think we have become complacent and passive by the rapid fire news cycle. Every day its some new outrage. Many feel helpless to do anything about it.

I only hang out with positive people, so I wouldn't know.

The world is a broad place , America alone has many Sectors.
Each with their own set of ideology and challenges. Different social constructs as well as Class distinctions. The outlook on life is broad and we need to be open minded and nit judge people based in challenges or situations. Because a poor man can work himself up to the Middle Class. A rich man can become either middle class sonuts important nit to judge
