...bc remaining unswept you would just be fine with whatever comes and not create some kind of optimistic outlook for the near future which were unrealistic to begin with...
I must admit that I do not see any differences in between these statements. I also cannot seem to make sense of what you wrote to explain it.
EDIT:
Ok I see you meant that "optimism is not the same" as these statements.
I think it would be worth discussing optimism, faith and hope.
