buoyancy - n. - ability to float when everyone around you is sinking

Buoyancy is tied to optimism, like a buoy can be tied to a dock when it hasn't been assigned to a solo gig. 

Optimistic people are buoyant as they never permit themselves to be tied down in the half-empty class of pessimism. They float in the glass that is half full.

While listening to FM radio this morning, still my medium of choice, I heard that the American Heart Association has proven that staying optimistic–buoyant–cuts your risk of getting heart disease. Yet they are probably just stating the obvious as common sense dictates that the healthier your mind is, the healthier your body is. Like optimism and buoyancy, the two are connected. 

Embrace the two, get out there and float through the day! Enjoy!
