Pronoia is a mental condition we should all have.

Pronoia is neologism that is defined as the opposite state of mind to paranoia: having a sense that there is a conspiracy that exists to help the person.
It is also used to describe a philosophy that the world is set up to secretly benefit people.

-AH Simkins
My pronoia kicked in when I realized that it only takes a few months to learn a new language, and not several years.

Now I feel more courageous to learn yet another language.

Colón (Pronounced Cologne) 

Colón is a sea port on the Caribbean Sea coast of Panama. The city lies near the Atlantic entrance to the Panama Canal. It is capital of Panama's Colón Province and has traditionally been known as Panama's second city. Colón was traditionally located entirely on Manzanillo Island, surrounded by Limon Bay, Manzanillo Bay and the Folks River. Since the disestablishment of the Canal Zone, the city's limits have been redefined to include the former Canal Zone towns of Cristobal, Rainbow City, Margarita, and Coco Solo, as well as the former U.S. Army base of Fort Gulick. Also, is found to be a last name. (Not to be mispronounced & mistaked for the human organ)
