Very insightful & thought provoking

I came here looking for porn, and instead got the true meaning of life - Hope. I fear I fit the Pessimist description pretty well, and I can see the downside. It is better to hope and be dissapointed than to fear and be right. The pessimist is in a lose-lose situation. Thanks.

Your volume of work is huge, and you are wise beyond your years, I (thank you for your work here) and hope you are not getting side tracked from your true purpose in life. (which only you can really know)

Yeah, but pessimism is more fun...

I liked your essay--the grammar's good, the expression also good, and you stated your case well. So as far as writing ability, you have that nailed. I just have to say that in my experience pessimists are more interesting, have a sharper sense of humor, and are more realistic than optimists. Besides, optimists annoy the hell out of me. Who has a right to be that damn cheerful? The only reason they're cheerful in the first place is because they happen to have that kind of brain chemistry. I'm a card-carrying pessimist and I wouldn't change that. Most talented, creative, deep-thinking people are pessimists, so we must be doing something right.
But like I said, your writing's fine, so I give you a 75%!

Okay...

You paint a black and white picture of life, one in which group A fears hope, and group B fears a lack of hope. Fear, then, is one thing that unites us all, but maybe that makes me a pessimist (because i acknowledge fear) or an optimist (Because I feel a sense of unity). What about the grey areas, in between? I feel that you have so much left to explore.

My mother coined me as an optimistic pessimist

In my live I have had several major "set backs" since I can remember. So I have a knack of mentally being prepared for the worse (but hope for the best). But when the worst doesn't happen,I very happy becouse the worst didn't happen (even when most would think the outcome was bad). No matter who it is,optimist or pessimist, that say the outcome of something is the worst possible outcome, I can easily tell them that they are wrong and point out a worst outcome. This ususlly make them better/happier...therefore I'm happier. Which is better the optimist or pessimist?...I don't know.It takes both to make the world. And I think we need both to keep in balance. Thank you for a well written piece.
Thanks again, R.G.
