Not with that attitude!

Agreed, we need to identify the problems and then be optimistic about solutions.
- pedro_hab 9y agoYou are right, I was a bit cynical there myself. But then again, I can't refrain from the fact that is way better today, I talk to older people and see how thing worked and it does look way better than it was. It seems that people are expecting life not to be filled with suffering, which is the case unfortunately, and it becomes harder to see the good parts.
