I've had this discussion with a friend, we were discussing an acquaintance we know who always has the appearance of full blown happiness....never a negative word to speak about anyone...always a smile on her face. Always a funny yarn to tell....bas I call you skips not walks everywhere.
As much as I do admire her outlook and positivity. Is it really sustainable this notion of putting your best face forward. At times we have to suck it up and act it.
But people who always find the silver lining to me are somewhat an enigma.

Why do you want to drag this lady down to your level? She deserves happiness doesn´t she?

I know a few people who fake their semingly 24/7 happiness. I don’t know what it’s about but they are covering something imho.

I'm discussing the psychology of it all rather than anything. I don't wish to see her unhappy at all. I'm just having a discussion about a topic and I'm using an example. I hope she is happy...I'm not hating on her just needed an analogy for my thread.

It's great if in their world they have no complaints. But sometimes constant "oh the world is so wonderful" can be as grating as a misery guts. Not a popular opinion I might add but it's a real one.
