my therapist

is there a name for people who always think that things are going to work out okay?
is that what they consider a dreamer? or someone unrealistic? or someone who lives in la la land?
i think that’s me. i’m not sure which one i am, but for some reason, i feel like things will be okay. i can’t guarantee that it will be, but i just feel it.
last thursday during my talk with my therapist, she said that she can really see the light at the end of the tunnel. she said that i’m doing amazing strides into the right direction. it’s funny i said because i can only see half a foot in front of me. she was thrilled with that. i’m lookin’ at her like “huh?”.
she said that just being able to see a little bit into the future means that i am not dwelling inside of myself. perhaps a good sign. she said that another role of the therapist is to see the whole picture and remind us to take care of things that we don’t think of. while in depression our view is narrow because we tend to stay within ourselves. she thinks and helps me anticipate things in the future. . she is suppose to be an unbiased observer.
i really like mine and i an lucky to have found her.
