"The need for certainty is the greatest disease the mind faces." - Robert Green

I resonate with this quote a lot. I'm aware of the effect of uncertainty on myself and I think it's the source of many conflicts, arguments in life.

My girlfriend and I had a bit of a fight yesterday about the communication problems that we've been dealing with. The problem might seem small and insignificant but the underlying issues will generate a lot more frustration in many other areas if not addressed properly.

We both have our own expectations, assumption and fail to communicate specifically what's on our minds. It has happened before, we addressed it, it happened again, and we addressed it again. I think it's a lifelong process and we'll get better over time.

"Expectation is the root of all heartache"

"Unhealthy love is when two people expect each other to solve the others' problems. Healthy love is when two people acknowledge and address their own problems with each other's support."- Mark Manson

After thought: My pronunciation of Desire sounds a lot like design. Some audio problem too, mostly mt internet connection. Well good that i have more notes to compensate.
