As if we do not...

...have enough to test and try in our daily lives, we have our own imaginations to contend with. These ensure that we can never fully relax. Always, there is something to be nervous of. No matter what the scenario, we are capable of conjuring up negative associations. Or of seeing within it a pessimistic possibility.


Worse, our imagination will often insist that it is not even talking to us - that it is, in fact, the voice of common sense.


Reason is not measured by size or height, but by principle.   (Epicetus)
