I think it depends on what the hardship is. If I am actively suffering something temporary (e.g. a stomach ache) it helps to think that I will feel better relatively soon. If im dealing with a long-term stress (chronic back pain) I feel better just focusing on whatever good is going on right now. Im probably reducing this beyond simplicity, but I used to be a very future-oriented person. Now i cant think beyond a month ahead. I just want to live with what I have while I have it.

My mom says the dog is black. I say he is gray.
