Soul Searching

So I know that I am rather cynical.  I also know that I kind of tell things like they are and don't sugarcoat things all that much.  That having been said, I was told recently that I was far too negative.  That I had a bad attitude and never see the positive in any situation.  I kind of took offense to that because I think that especially lately I have had a very good attitude and have been very positive about the great opportunities God has been placing in our lives and all of our blessings.  Perhaps I need to do some soul searching as I may be having difficulty seeing myself as others do.
