I've been called "naive" by my friends and i'm just wondering if there's anything wrong with deluding yourself into thinking everything's all perfect and works itself out as oppose to being grumpy and depressed like everyone else these days.

There is nothing wrong with believing the best of people. Hell, the world would be a better place if more people were optimistic.

Optimism is alright, to an extent. Blindly optimistic people can become frustrating
at times because ,damn it!, some people just want to wallow in their own misery for
a little awhile.

However,I don't think being optimistic , makes someone entirely naive. It depends
on a few factors, and a decently told back-story; to make a more meaningful
observation of this post.

It is a strange habit of humans. We put knowledge and freedom and truth above happiness. Our morality is bad for everyone at times.

It's good to be positive and optimistic, and there are plenty of good reasons for people to be positive about life in general.

"Naive" however, doesn't imply this - what it implies instead is gullibility. A "naive" person isn't someone who believes that things will eventually be okay, a naive person is someone who really thinks that the Nigerian Bank is holding $10 million in an undeclared trust for them, because they got an email about it.
