"We should try to be precise about the source of our frustrations.
Some of our trials are new, the result of our new environment
and changed circumstances, and may require original solutions.
But many others are simply old trials turning up in a new place.
As such, we already know what to do about them (i.e., the same
thing we did the last time), provided, that is, we identify them
for what they are. On the whole, life doesn't pose that many
dilemmas; it merely recycles the same ones in new packaging."
