B Correct answer
Explanation

Looking on the brighter side of everything is the defining trait of an optimist - someone who maintains a positive outlook and focuses on favorable possibilities. A pessimist sees the negative, while a sadist derives pleasure from others' pain. The futurist focuses on future possibilities rather than current optimism.
