Do you ever feel like it's hard to connect with people because of your belief system? I feel like I'm really positive because of the influence people like you and Jessica Mullen, etc have had on me and I'm just generally optimistic (I don't like gossiping, I try to see the best in people, etc) but find that like-minded people are hard to find.

But why would you want to hang out with people who weren’t positive?

I know what you mean, and I’ve experienced it too, but it just pushes me harder to find people who I would actually enjoy being friends with.

If someone thinks optimism is uncool or naïve or whatever, they’re not the type of person I want to be spending time with anyway. We wouldn’t like each other.
