What about you?

[wcladymacbeth]

I do not ever think about the worst case scenario. Well, that's a lie, sometimes it pops into my head, but I absolutely refuse to dwell on it for any length of time. Except sometimes I think morbid thoughts - you know, about my death and stuff, and what people would say at my funeral, and who would come, etc, but I don't consider it a "worst case scenario". A "worst case scenario" would be Justin dying, or Maggie, or my parents, or my brother, or my best friend... THAT brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it, but that's not stuff I dwell on.

What were we talking about?

I am horrible about thinking the worst. I will get myself worked up over little things, and its just crazy sometimes. I have been working on it, but I def. go into every situation thinking that I did something wrong and there is going to be hell to pay, when most of the time its something completley opposite and has a way of turning out to be good.

Justin just informed me that I in fact always think of worst case scenarios. In fact, we weren't even talking about this thread. He was talking about how he wishes they still made lawn darts and I said "No way, one would of those could maim my dog!" and he said "Why do you always have to think of the worst case scenario? Maybe everyone would have a good time and no one would get hurt." And then I laughed and told him about this thread and he laughed because of my own misconception of myself.

I should be more introspective.

I don't feel that I am a pessimist. Because I see BOTH sides and strive for the more positive side. It's just how I function. Why can't I explain it better?

I believe you can be both and it is a healthy balance.
