It gets worse. It gets better. It's always changing. I really appreciate (and am also somewhat maddened) by Buddhist thought on topics like these. It's all about expectations and attachment. We grasp so tightly to the "good" things that happen, we become miserable when things don't live up to expectations. So the trick is to let go. Easier said than done though...

Interesting...this is how Buddhism thinks? Very cool.
I've always believed in the thinking: "you can't change other people's (things) actions, you can only change your reaction to them".....which, to me, is kinda going in line with this....
