Pessimist Vs. Optimists

I wonder why people actually fear negativity. We survive with the good as well as the bad. Even the pessimists survive, and as a matter of fact they do quite well in life, sometimes better than optimists! Although we cannot judge anyone, as every individual is different, but still there is a raging war between the optimists and the pessimists.
The optimists are a stubborn lot, they force there "positive energy" on the pessimists. Whereas the pessimists live and die with their "negative energy" and most of times without regret as well. On a personal level, I am a pessimist and I have absolutely no problems with that. And I hate it when optimistic people come to me and preach me!
I believe that my attitude and beliefs should be respected, but I am aware of the fact that this is not possible. Your fellow beings around you are always ready to contradict you, especially on your pessimist attitude. Usually the reason behind this is their concern for you, but sometimes they just can't bear your individualistic thinking. Your individuality nags them, if they are optimistic then they want you to be optimistic as well. And to achieve that, they will run after your lives like a Bull.
The pessimists usually don't bother about changing anyone else's attitude. They are either happy with themselves or else are mere victims of pessimism. We, the pessimists see life differently, but are we not living as well??...
Are we not enjoying our lives??.....you see pessimists all around you, healthy and sound....then I wonder why optimists run behind you, as though there ass is on fire!!...
