Boomerang

Picture this. You work hard for an exam, and you get a perfect score. You took good care of your orchids and after a few weeks you see them in full bloom. You invest continuously in the stock market, and count some years, you will be able to start your own business.

Nothing beats the feeling of getting something you think you deserve. Simply put, you feel worthy maybe because of something you possess;  a desirable quality perhaps, a unique skill, or hardwork.

We are used to this. I'm sorry I needed companion so I used the term we. This is rational, because when the time comes that the things we do not expect happen more frequently than the things we do, we probably will change sides/expectations. I think the deserving part is a developed feeling, a feeling that grew through time and events.

Now picture this. You work hard for an exam, but you get an average score. You took good care of your orchids but after a few weeks half of them died. You invest in the stock market, and you went bankrupt.

Change of plans? I just might. In the past, actually, I did. *insert a lot of persuasive thoughts here* This is what I think we should work on. Challenging our inner bestialities and not giving in, as long as we still can look forward to something good.
