Is it normal i'm so glad i have braces?

I recently got train-track braces and despite the fact that I'm older than most people with braces, I'm so glad that I have them. They can be a bit of a pain, but I waited for a long time for them and I'm so glad that my teeth are being fixed. It's so reassuring to know that I'm constantly getting closer to the smile I've been waiting for. All I have to do is get them tightened every couple of months and keep them clean and my teeth sort themselves out. When I was at secondary school, so many people would moan about their braces and I know they can be very uncomfortable but I'm still very grateful that I live in a country that braces are so easily accessible. I feel like I'm one of the only people that appreciate braces... is this true?
