Optimism doesn't mean being unrealistically positive and happy when the environment we are in is so difficult. Optimism is about believing that a better future is possible; looking beyond the events in front of us and identifying the actions we can take. It's about looking to engage with the situation rather than shy away from it. Optimism makes us more able to help other people move towards a better future too.
