Thank you. I actually woke up this morning considering this question. I could go for so many of them but I'm choosing optimism for today at least. We have a social activity to attend and I have to be on my best behaviour, so to speak. I'll see how that goes today and will perhaps pick another tomorrow.
Thanks for that great exercise so far, Clara. I've just returned from an engagement. I'd been dreading it because I'm among the matriarchs in a developing country (as you will recognise where you are). And these dignified ladies have so much more serious I life experience than I, with my "spoilt" (I feel) fluttery western manners. But instead of fearing it, I meditated upon optimism instead and instead of wrecking it with nerves (which I did last week with a grossly-misjudged Frank Spencer imitation!), I was able to enjoy a beautiful morning with friends. Thanks again. I'll see what tomorrow's ends up being :)
Do you want to share which one you picked?

That's nice, I hadn't really noticed that one yet, looking over them. That would be a good one for me too.

Aah nice to hear! So you are holding on to the sub value of optimism all week? That's so great!
Yes - it's making me feel much better :)
Yay!
