Unknowingly, unintentionally, I invest so much time and thought into seemingly insignificant potential happenings that when something goes wrong, disappointment comes far too easily. One would think that I would have learned from my previous mistakes, that I would know better than to get in too deeply or to want something too much.

But then what's life anyway? A roller coaster ride of ups and downs, of disappointment and fullfillment. Because if we never aim high or if we always lose faith, there would never be the complementary high, the achievement of a seemingly unobtainable goal, the scaling of an insurmountable obstacle. One should never expect good returns from a risk-free investment.

As they say, what goes up must come down. But likewise, what hits rock bottom can only move up from there. We should never be afraid of letting ourselves down or of being hurt because we are all capable of picking ourselves up and moving on.
