Only bad things happen quickly.


I guess that this statement is true, but sometimes it is only true because we don’t pay attention to the signs of bad things that are coming. This may happen because we are focusing on the good things and waiting for the good things to happen (and quickly) so that when something bad happens it seems to be sudden.

For some reason everybody wants to know about tragedies (one can easily notice this by looking at the kind of news we have in the media every day), but when it comes to things that affect us on a personal level we ignore the bad signs and possibilities (thinking “it won’t happen to me”) and focus on the positive. I guess that it is instinctive so that one doesn’t get depressed just by thinking about what can go wrong, but at the same time it is important to keep things real. Between being positive or negative, be realistic!
