Thinking Out Loud

Thought#1: The hardest thing to know is what gets better over time  and what gets worse of time. This goes for friendships, jobs, food, etc. Now some of these are well known by population (e.g. banana go bad after time) but some are unclear (e.g. some cheeses are better aged, some are not) and there is often no way of knowing until it happens.

Thought #2: If two friendships occur and one was a person I didn't expect to become friends with and the other was a person I really wanted to become friends with, does the one with high expectations less satisfying? Setting the bar high can give a higher chance of failure, however setting the bar high can also give confidence and positivity to the situation leading to higher chance of success.
