The holiday dawned bright and sunny this morning, despite the forecasts of wet, cloudy weather for today. Tout le monde was out on bicycles when I went walking, and though the blue sky with an occasional cloud turned to overcast in the afternoon and the wind had a definite chill to it all day, it looks like the day off was actually rainfree!
What did someone (I think it was me) once say? "The weather forecast is always right, but sometimes the weather forgot to listen to it."
It's interesting about anticipation and fulfillment - if you expect the worst, and the mediocre happens, you're pleased. However, if you expect something to be wonderful and it's 'only' mediocre, you're disappointed. In that case, shouldn't pessimists be the happiest people in the world??
