be realistic

i was thinking/pondering today about life (as i always do nowadays) and i came to a weird thought.

i was thinking about how my mom tries to stay positive nowadays about things and sometimes it’s a bit irrational how she’s very hopeful. then i thought of how i’m usually cynical about things because i have lost the ability to hope since i’ve been let down too many times. then i thought it was just because i think realistically about life. then…

what IS realistic about life? is it the fact that you’re let down so often? is it the fact that things cannot and will not go the way you want it to go? is it the ups or the downs? is that how you justify “real life”?
