I choose reflect on Chapter three, "Optimism and Reality".
I think I am an opimist, but I am thinking negatively, when some trouble happens.
I join ultimate frisbee club, and on the weekend, we often play games with other teams. Ultimate frisbee is played with seven members, so team play is very important to cooperate with each other. However, I often make a mistake and give someone a hard. I do not care about it so much. Although I have a responsibility as one of the team members, and I get depressed. When I am in such a bad feeling, team members say "Don't mind! Don't mind! Next!!". This phrase is impressed me, and become thinking positively. I become happy and laugh, and enjoy playing game even though the game loses.
I am able to be an optimist because of people around me. I am thinking positively because of them, and they are essential for me to think positively. On the game, by cheering up each other, we have synergistic effect.
Hi Yurie,

Oh, and I also want to mention that I am always very impressed by the ultimate frisbee club. I see you all often on the playing field as I pass by it on my way home.
