Life is wonderful.

Don’t let it bring you downhill.

Believe that you’re strong.

I'm glad. That makes me feel great. It's a simple Haiku, but it was intended to make others feel better. I'm sorry to hear that you are a pessimist. It can be changed. I write poetry, create art, and write music from my passion to help others become optimistic. I know that to you, I am a random poet on this site, but if you need someone to talk to by all means contact me. It's a goal of mine to help as many people as I can.

Coming from a lifelong pessimist, I have to say, it's cute and it did make me smile.
