Call me an eternal optimist, however I always like to look on the brighter side of any situation.
A long time ago I was more dour, plus a very emo type of man.
To myself and others the glass was always half empty, never half full. After a while I just got tired from being so irritated plus distraught all the time, so I decided to make a major change. I started doing yoga, meditating, plus smoking a lot of pot. I made a concentrated effort to let go of my stress plus my worry plus just embrace the moment. Currently I am going through some complications at home, however I continue to cast everything in a positive light. When my HVAC idea died, I knew that I didn’t have enough money to have it serviced. I didn’t even have enough money on hand to pay an HVAC expert to tell myself and others what the main problem was. I could have gotten depressed, but instead I realized that this was the only period of the entire year when I could survive a few weeks without air conditioner. I live way down south, where my nice friend and I basically run our AC systems 9 to 11 months a year. My AC happened to chop right in that sweet spot where the temps were nice plus the humidity was quite low. In other words – if my air conditioner was going to break, this was the best possible time for it to happen to me. Now I have a few weeks to save up a little more money, which hopefully will be enough to cover the HVAC service costs so I can have it back before the brutal summer time arrives.
