Optimists have shorter lives because they have more fulfilling, adventurous lives?
And we pessimists, who bunker up like the mythical ants storing food for the winter, will not only outlive the optimists in linear time, but our lives will also seem a lot longer because of our burdensome worries.
Speaking of winter, as a man who lives in a city with REAL winters (Winnipeg), I wonder how uncharacteristic of me it is that I cycle in the winter. On the one hand, the dangers of winter cycling are quite overstated, on the other hand there still are some dangers to it.
