Sweet

For as long as I can remember, I've been called sweet. This is great, except when it isn't true. I'm such a pretender at times. I guess we all are. I often confuse optimism with dishonesty. If I'm not optimistic about something, why shouldI lie and say I am? Because it might help someone to be posative about things they couldn't before. It might help ME to be posative about things I couldn't before. So, I'd say, it isn't lying, it's choosing hope over hopelessness. :)
