Honesty and truthGreat expectationsStandards too high to reachDoes one set up for failure or lower the standards? When you settle, can you be happy? Wouldn't it be forever less than what you wanted? Is it better to fail after trying? Is it? Is there any satisfaction in failing? Perhaps there can be. If you do your best, then that is all that can be done. If you try and fail, and you know there was more that you could have given, then satisfaction will be forever out of reach. I suppose there is peace in knowing your limitations.Of course I talk like I have a clue. Truth is all I have are theories, theories and fear. What if your best will never be good enough even for yourself? It puts a damper on enthusiasm to say the least. If you don't put it all out there, then there is always the hope of achievement. If you give all you have to give, if this is the best you can do and just can't cut it, then what? What happens to the dream? Where does it go? Do you all of a sudden not want what you've always wanted? Will it always cause a twang of pain knowing that you're just not good enough? Does it have to be all or nothing? Sometimes baby steps are a cop out. Sometimes a little bit doesn't go a long way. Sometimes fear really does win. Untapped potential and a life unrealized are the saddest concepts for me.Ugh, I always seem to depress myself. I'm going to bed. Good Night All.
