I have had many troubles in my life, but the worst of them never came.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened.
I grew up in a house that had a whole lot of trouble. As much trouble as you could imagine.
My life has been full of terrible misfortunes most of which never happened.
I've been through a lot of struggles.
I feel like trouble has followed me from the day I was born.
I was a big troublemaker in the group. I put them through a lot of pain, but as much as I gave to them, they gave right back to me.
The misfortunes hardest to bear are these which never came.
The best way to cope with trouble is to stay out of it as much as possible.
I've always found people to be by far the biggest problem-causers in life.
So I had the worst experience at the very beginning, and things have been getting better since.
