Cautious optimism
Theres no such thing as cautious optimism. Cautious optimism is cynicism. Thinking the sky is going to fall and trying to look forward to the little bit of good left in things before it does is cynicism. Really, having a bucket list is cynicism, since even though it becomes more likely that you'll die soon when you get older, once the mystery isnt there you're not really living anyway, you're just trying to live the rest of your days as an adrenaline junkie before the crash at the end, to go out with a bang, that's cynicism. Most thoughts disguised as positive are really cynical by nature.
Fuck positive thoughts and people, they think the end is a crash and it becomes one for everybody else too. There is no cautious optimism.
