The game of “if I knew then what I know now” is one of the most aggravating we can play. Something we “should have done” but didn’t will almost certainly be highlighted.

Sometimes it may seem like you have to abandon your attempt at optimism. ” I’m in high spirits, however…” It’s as if excessive optimism blinds a person to reality, necessitating a return to everyday concerns.
