Can someone help me edit my intro sentence?

This is my intro sentence for an assignment I have, but i'm not sure if its sophisticated enough.

"Once I was optimistic, greeting the mornings as I awoke, confident about my day ahead, enjoying the love that I would get, seeing the beauty of the world, believing in second chances, being happy to be alive, regarding the glass as half full."

Thanks!

Update:

Its a long list because its suppose to be modeled after some of Brain Doyle's sentences.

    This is an excellent sentence, just as you have written it -- perfect in every detail.

    It needs no editing.

    But -- what happens next??!! It's so good, in other words, that I am eager to know what the next line will be.
