What is one word that describes you?

The one word I would use to describe myself is ‘optimist’.
An eternal believer in the theory that ‘I will survive’. Irrespective of the odds, I am sure that I would eventually get out of a tough situation in one piece. The tough initial years of my life maybe what makes me a firm believer in my survival instincts.
Now on the last leg of my life I would rather build on the foundation that I have in place and spend the last few decades in understanding and making myself a better human being.
