Oh Karen Kay. I was trying so hard to put that gently. I don't believe at all that your questions are a result of a personality disorder. Everyone engages in black and white thinking at times. And of course we all wish the world was a less confusing, happy place where bad things don't happen to good people. God, wouldn't that ease so much suffering?

And you are absolutely right, having that wish is a form of hope and optimism. And we all need that in order to even get out of bed in the morning. But the world, unfortunately, is not so. I guess I thought I was picking up something in your post/thought process (it seemed like you were thinking aloud a bit?) that suggested that you were having trouble existing in both places--in that hopeful wish for better things AND the reality of the world as it is.

But you may also have just been posing your take on a classic philosphical dilemma. I know when I was reading the thread, I really did feel like my head was spinning. I was really tired and had just come out of a session, and then straight into supervision. Please forgive me for forgetting to take off my T hat before I logged on. Sometimes it slips down over my eyes a bit and I can't see clearly. :)

Forgive me?
