text:  What about 1988 when I filed bankruptcy and I had a brand new baby, a toddler, and a marriage hanging on by a thread? What if I take a snapshot of that and say, this is my entire life? And you extrapolate that as if it is the future. As if it's your identity forever. You graph your current crisis into the future and you say, this is all there is. That's not glass half full. That's inaccurate critical thinking skills.
