"Opti-Pessimism": A Balanced Outlook to Life

If Alexander Fleming had dwelt so much on the side effects of Penicillin, the wonder medication that saved several lives in the early 20th century, perhaps many of us would not have lived long enough to read this article. If the Wright Brothers had exercised a morbid fear of crash of their flying contraption, which sparked the invention of the Aeroplane, many persons today would be discouraged to travel long distances. Does it mean we should always look at the positive sides of things only and ignore the possible unfavorable implications? No! We cannot do that. While optimistic thinking invented the ship, pessimistic thinking led to the invention of lifebuoy to prevent death of passengers should the ship sink. While optimistic thought invented the helicopter, pessimistic thought inspired the development of a device that can make passengers survive a crash. The inventor called it Parachute.

Chapter 1 My childhood years were filled with pleasurable times listening to my paternal grandmother tell us stories.  Storytelling in the village square by the popular community storyteller was the pastime of many kids during my grandmother's formative years. "We assembled twice a week under an Obeche tree near the Oba's palace those days to hear Baba Aro's stories," grandma said. He told more fiction than non-fiction, I learned. My grandma was one of the few girls who had a Western education when it was introduced to her community.  The popular vocations then were farming by the men and women, hunting by men alone and weaving by women alone. Most girls were made to work on farms or weave with their mothers. The boys who were smart enough were allowed to receive elementary education that was provided by the Anglican Missionaries in those years. St Thomas Anglican Primary School was the first school in my hometown of Ikere Ekiti. My grandma was glad that she had a...
