Do you ever think about your low points in life and wonder whether the low points aren’t as bad as you think and the high points aren’t as good as you think? Is that pessimistic? I don’t know if it is or not but I’ve been having a rough time lately and I’ve been wondering whether things are not really so bad as I have built them in my mind. Then I started wondering whether I build good things up in my mind also - then do these things become expectations that lead to disappointments? I think I just get myself out of balance sometimes.
