roseate
[roh-zee-it, -eyt]
1. tinged with rose; rosy: a roseate dawn.
2. bright or promising: a roseate future.
3. incautiously optimistic: a roseate forecast for holiday sales.
For instance, it says that one may have many, many fancies, my Barbara--that as soon as the spring comes on, one's thoughts become uniformly pleasant and sportive and witty, for the reason that, at that season, the mind inclines readily to tenderness, and the world takes on a more roseate hue.
The future looked less roseate with the knowledge that she would be unhappy in the life that he had been mapping for them.
