I disagree with your two points on life.

#1 Adopting a positive attitude is a risky game in my book.

Those that think with a positive attitude tend to cut corners where they
should not. "Just get it done... And hope for the best". A person with a
negative attitude knows things can fail and will try and foresee all
negative outcomes and makes the best of it for the money and outcome. Spend
some extra time and get it right.

#2 Life does not always find away.

The earth is in sad shape because of reckless human behaviors. People are
always putting profit over health and environment.

Being afraid and expecting the worst is no way to go through life.

Somehow, with my basically positive attitude I manage to minimize my
impact on the environment and leave the world a little better than I
found it.

The earth has a lot of problems, but in my short life I've seen Blue

You see deer because of bad land management practices and the
elimination of predators.

Wild turkeys have been introduced to many areas.

Black bears are extremely versatile animals. When you see them in
human-inhabited areas, it means they do not have sufficient wild area
for them to establish a territory.

Ditto, coyotes.
