We usually only say that when today really sucks so the odds are tomorrow will be a better day.

because we can make our next days petter or worst. If we believe that tomorrow will not be different from today, we will not move even a single step. Why should we if we do not have the ability to change our future, make it better than reality.
I am pessimistic on the world future, but I do everything in my power to change that as long as i wished.
thanks yahoo

It's only normal for people to look for their circumstances to improve. Possibly stems back to human nature's desire to succeed and improve. Of course the theory there would be that those people look for improvement in the future, then take steps to make that improvement happen. Today we have a tendency to expect improvements to be made for us, therefore we believe that tomorrow will inevitably be a more positive experience than the day before.
Idealism, it's what it takes ^_^

Hope is a belief in a positive outcome related to
events and circumstances in one's life. Hope
implies a certain amount of perseverance i.e.
believing that a positive outcome is possible even
when there is some evidence to the contrary.
A person who dreads of 'what tomorrow may bring'
looses the zeal of life itself. He can not live in
the present even for one day. I do not agree that
'any person can fight the battles of just one
day'. There are many in the world who fight their
battles life long, and still live with some hope.
It is nice to live for today and complete what is
to be done today. But humans are distinguished
from the rest of the living beings by hope. For
other living beings, there may not be tomorrow.
But hope is life for humans. Tomorrow may not come
for a few. But the others are sure that there will
be a day after present one. And it is hoped by
many to be a little better than today. What is not
realized today may be within our reach tomorrow.
It is hope that make people to live through all
torments of life. The moment a person loses hope,
the very zeal to live is lost.
Living in the past is dreaming. Living in the
present intuition connected basic instincts.
Living in hope of is humanistic rationality
to look for future.
Hope - Pandora brought the jar with the evils and
opened it. It was the gods` gift to man, on the
outside a beautiful, enticing gift, called the
"lucky jar." Then all the evils, those lively,
winged beings, flew out of it. Since that time,
they roam around and do harm to men by day and
night. One single evil had not yet slipped out of
the jar. As Zeus had wished, Pandora slammed the
top down and it remained inside. So now man has
the lucky jar in his house forever and thinks the
world of the treasure. It is at his service; he
reaches for it when he fancies it. For he does not
know that the jar which Pandora brought was the
jar of evils, and he takes the remaining evil for
the greatest worldly good - it is hope! For Zeus
did not want man to throw his life away, no matter
how much the other evils might torment him, but
rather to go on letting himself be tormented anew.
To that end, he gives man hope.
"Three grand essentials to happiness in this life
are something to do, something to love, and
something to hope for." - Joseph Addison
Hope! Hope! Hope!
Delicious Hope! when naught to man it left - -
Of fortune destitute, of friends bereft;
When even his dog deserts him, and his goat
With tranquil disaffection chews his coat
While yet it hangs upon his back; then thou,
The star far-flaming on thine angel brow,
Descendest, radiant, from the skies to hint
The promise of a clerkship in the Mint.
People sow seeds with hope
And hope is the seed of life
People through ages hoped for eternity
Because hope is as great as eternity
Never give-up hope, never ever
Hope is your best mate, all the time
Even if all desert you unexpectedly
Hope will be with you, if you wish....

Anticipation ... tomorrow is pregnant ; today is history already.And all the anxieties of today will be over by tomorrow. So you might fight your pessimism by telling yourself that tomorrow will be better than today, and you're not wrong.

I think we are terrified of being fully alive today, so we delay facing & enjoying our life until tomorrow.

Well, we don't think; we hope, because we already know today is crappy and yesterday doesn't exist, except for the regrets.

Optimism springs eternal. It's what keeps humans going. If everyone thought they were ****** no one would do anything anymore.
