That is too funny, since I had such a reputation, before I was saved, as being such a downer. I was widely labeled a pessimist. One of my favorite Yes classics had these lyrics ...
Quote:
Close to the edge, down by the river.
Down at the end, round by the corner.
Seasons will pass you by,
Now that it's all over and done,
Called to the seed, right to the sun.
Now that you find, now that you're whole.
Seasons will pass you by,
I get up, I get down.
I get up, I get down.
I get up, I get down.
I get up.

Before (and after) I was saved, I seriously thought that all happy people were Christians. Probably I arrived at that conclusion since all the contented folks in my life were still involved with the Catholic church, while all my closest friends were miserable like me and were all backsliding Catholics.
After I was incredibly saved, I told everyone about finding Jesus. To my dismay, all my "happy" acquaintances seemed to care little for what happened to me, while most of my miserable friends listened intently.
