I was doing the thorough cleaning the other day when I bumped into the box with my old stuff. Like really old, there were some old souvenirs and concert tickets and, surprisingly, my old notebooks from my middle school time. There were some short stories and poems that I wrote back those days. I spent 40 minutes on reading them and gosh they were awful! I felt the urge to burn them down immediately right in the middle of my living room and thought: “Oh God, I hope no one read this!”

Artists and art analysts argued and discussed the criteria of art. Tastes differ and each person may have his or her own opinion on art. You come to an art gallery and choose the paintings and objects that attract you. Some people value the beauty of art, other people suppose that art should be realistic. The third ones may consider the most important aspect of art to be the fact that it should express feelings and emotions. There are a large number of paintings in the world and the ones may be characterized by the photographic fidelity while the others perfectly transmit the mood of the author being totally abstract.

It is a unique experience or a terrific ordeal depending on the roommate you are lucky to have.
If you face a dilemma of whether to live alone or allow someone else to occupy a part of your private space, my recommendation is to choose the second option without hesitation. We all want independence and seclusion, but after a few weeks of living alone this seclusion will become unbearable and the walls in your room will learn your entire life story.

It is also know that the belief only in positive aspects of life or the habit to be depressed is defined on the genetic level. However, it is in your power to defeat this program and become an optimist.
The stress tolerance allows you not only to save your nerves. In difficult situations optimists usually behave more reasonable than pessimists. Pessimists find it harder to face the problems because when sometimes goes wrong they sink into depression and start blaming themselves. Of course, with such attitude towards problems it is extremely difficult for them to compete with optimists. However, you should note that you can also be a born optimist or a self-made one. As it is impossible to change your genetic pattern you will have to work on controlling your thoughts. If you are clever enough to understand that you are not a realist but a miserable whiner, it means that half the battle is won. Now you have only to develop a habit to remember it every time you feel the attack of dark thoughts. View your pessimism as a kind of disease and use logics and self-analysis as a medicine. In the beginning it will be difficult to catch yourself at being pessimistic but with time it will develop into some reflex.
