IDEAL, I DEAL

Ideal, would be if i earn more than i can spend. Ideal would be i get married to a rich and handsome boy who loves me to death and treats me like a princess. Ideal would be, that i don't see a day of sorrow in my life and i always be happy. Ideal would be me doing my dream job and ideal would be me sleeping at this ungodly time in the night and punching stupid things on my keyboard. What's ideal? Nothing is... Ideal is such a farce. There is no such thing as 'ideal'.

Everybody wants to live an 'ideal' life. It means, a life that they have thought of, circumstances that their brain has pictured in its head for its own comfort. 'Ideally' it means a big lie that you tell yourself to console your sad upset deprived soul. If its ideal, why doesn't it happen?

So far, anything that i ever thought was 'ideal' in any circumstance would so promptly fail me that it became a joke. Everytime i think of something 'ideal' i automatically know i am being directed to a dream world that does not exist. 'Ideal' is such a dellusion such a sham that preachers have used it as a tool to show you directions to your so called 'ideal' life. Your bosses have used this word to show you your 'ideal' place. Your spouses will time and again remind you how 'ideal' your life is/was/can be. Just the mention of the word 'ideal' and you know in your head that it is all going to be alright! You are such a fool in that case, sorry!

When was the last time this 'ideal' thing happened to you? If it is so ideal then why doesnt it happen in the first place?

I know I stand the risk of saying the same hollow nonsense that you seem to be revolting against, but still will go ahead.
'Ideal' happens when, as you put it so aptly in the title, when 'I deal'. It happens when you stop worrying about what is NOT happening as per your wish. Then everything suddenly becomes ideal. So, think about it - was your UK stint ideal. There must have been a zillion things that didn't go as you wanted them to, but if you didn't lose sleep over those things, then the whole thing would be ideal for you. As soon as you start worrying about the worrisome worries, everything is non ideal.
So - yes, it is only a state of mind that we define. When we are not in that state of mind, idealism sounds like Utopian bullshit.
