Ha, exactly. We have such odd notions of how things “should be” based often on fake “norms” and social media. That’s not real life, at best it’s someone’s carefully curated highlight reel - or entirely fake.
I’m not saying to give up and accept everything, I’m saying “stop, observe, think, enjoy” - you can spend your time miserable and wish for what could be, or you could thoroughly enjoy what is and be present.
Meditation also helps.
