I had hoped that after last year things might have lightened up
 Not wrong, but when you read about the dark things happening in the world, it’s slightly unrealistic to believe that you’d be left untouched by it. Have as much hope as you want, all I’m saying is that dashed hope hurts, and it would be better for you to guard yourself against it now. I meant no offense.
I've been touched enough by the dark things happening. I think I have every right to at least loose my self in what ever little optimism I have left. I don't need guarding anymore I'm not a child. Sorry if I take your word for not offending.Â
