You need both
Just at different times.

I would rhyme for both of the choices,
You can't be real without being optimistic
You can't be positive without being real
It's like having the give and take relationship

I'm realoptimism

if your realistic, usually things just look dull and sad. if your optimistic, it hurts more when you get disappointed. its true, you need both.

The only way you can live with just optimistic is if you are ALWAYS optimistic, such as myself. I'm kind of happy at everything, no matter what happens there's always something else to make me happy :D
Which in a sense is also realistic because I'm happy for what is REAL. happy
