It is wise to hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
I think that throughout most of my life, I was trying, more or less consciously, trying to hope for the best. Still, I remembered constantly trying to prepare for the worst scenario. Still, what is the worst scenario? For me, the worst scenario is death. I know what I write today can be seen as something radical. Still, the older I am, the more I see that something like good or bad scenarios do not exist. Only our minds’ interpretations tell us whether some occurrences are “good” or “bad” scenarios. After all, no matter what we will do in our lives, sooner or later, we all face death.
It will be the end for all of us. Even John Lennon and Michael Jackson left this world forever (physically, of course).
That’s why we all will die in “good” or “bad” scenarios. It does not mean we should stop analyzing and planning our lives. We should do our best to hope for the best and simultaneously be prepared for the worst. Still, if something does not go according to plan, even if we are hit by traumatic experiences, we should try to accept them. I know it is convenient to write about it lying on a comfortable couch.
Moreover, I know it is impossible to prepare for some scenarios, even if we know that they can appear sooner or later (like the death of someone we love).
Still, we should always do our best to get up and fight with ourselves with our weaknesses repeatedly. In today’s post, I want to stress I try not to see reality and everything happening around me as something “good” or “bad.” I simply try to be prepared for the worst scenario and, simultaneously, believe in everything that could be the best for my beloved Kamilka, my Parents, my Family, and my Friends.
