A Realistic Optimist? Optimistic Realist?

I was wondering, yesterday, what had happened to me. The pendulum has dropped from optimist to realist. When? Why? And if there's "joy in the Lord," then oughtn't I be more joyful? Doesn't that mean optimistic?

But what if I'm sick of saccharine-sweetness? Is "tell it like it is" an acceptable MO?

But then, if joy is in me, wouldn't "tell it like it is" include the joy aspect?

Is the real Joy-Giver the apple of my eye?
