[Low Expectation]
Life is pain. At least for me, my life has been so and will be so.
If so, how shold I manage to live such a painful life?

By thinking this way, I can endure pains in my life, because I have low expectation from the beginning.
I thought that way when I was the 5-6th grade. Too pessimistic. My miserable experiences, e.g. selective mutism, bullying, and my father's passing, probably caused me to think that way.
