Expectations = (potential) Disappointments I feel as if I am setting myself up for this as of late. I am moving to a new town in a couple of weeks- I am so optimistic of the changes.

Does anyone else get that? Did that just sound like I was blaming some negative feelings on my TV?? I didn't m...

PON = Power of Now

Awesome stuff Triple T!
