Always expect the worst, and you will never be dissappointed again!

A wise man, a man I hold dear to my heart, and that has helped me though some of the roughest points in my life, told me multiple times... This AMAZING bit of, well, wisdom:

-------------------------------------------------------

"Always prepare for the worst, and you will never be disappointed again!"

-------------------------------------------------------


Sure I'll admit I'm not retarded or rich enough to call myself an "optimist", but I am also not a pessimist...

I want to say I'm a "realist", though that may be up for other people's interpretations...

Most people will likely just call me a dick, asshole, or dickish-asshole. Or "Hey you! Awesome ferret dude!"

But seriously, which I rarely am, that one phrase has helped me though some of the toughest points in my life. And I'm talking the darkest, when I think life isn't worth living any more.

It could be pessimistic optimism... But it is none-the-less TRUE!

If you prepare for shit to be bad, you only set yourself up for "GOOD" and "EXPECTED" outcomes.

If things go sideways, I already prepared for that... Some may call it "pre-worry", but remember that time I said we should bring umbrellas and a tarp on the trip and you were all "Dude! It's not gonna rain! We don't need this extra shit!" and then the biggest storm you have ever seen happened?... We ended up being the only ones of the group that considered that a super FUN trip, while everyone else was soggy and waterlogged.

A person I consider a friend once asked me why I had grappling hook and crow bar and fire starting kit and metal coffee pot and a change of underwear and toilet paper in the back of my Station Wagon, I said "Just in case I ever fly off a cliff and survive or break down in the middle of nowhere or need to take a crap on the side of the road or warm up"... I'm talking "Worst case scenario" type stuff.

That one phrase is almost entirely eliminating the whole "bad" side of things in life.

Because it gets rid of that one thing that could really ruin someone's day: "Things not going as expected."

Sure we could go to the very end and mention "DEATH"... But hey, prepare for the worst includes that... I didn't die today, so the possible bad shit that may have happened is nothing compared to dying some horrible death... In case you want to throw in crazy muslims torturing me till I want to die, well that is what guns and screaming "I'm taking you with me!" are for.

There is nothing worse than the worst!
