The Optimist
The Optimist sees the doughnut, the pessimist – the hole. There is a story of identical twins. One was a hope‐filled optimist. The other twin was a hopeless pessimist. At school, the optimist did much better than his twin brother, who was always sad and jealous.
The worried parents of the boys brought them to the psychologist. He thought of a plan to balance the twins’ personalities. He advised the parents to give the pessimist the best, the optimist the worst presents for their next birthday. The parents followed these instructions.
When in the morning they looked into the pessimist’s room they heard him saying: “I don’t like the colour of this computer. I hate this game. I know someone who’s got a bigger toy car than this.”
The little optimist, anyhow, was happily looking through his pile of old torn magazines, laughing and saying: “That’s exactly what I have wanted to read!”
