Expectations

Sometimes our expectations of things are way too high. So why are we then disappointed afterwards? It's not like we didn't know, maybe deep down, that certain things weren't going to happen the way we would have preferred them to. I'm of the opinion that no matter what we may "know", we generally don't pay attention to that, but concentrate instead on what we want. We shouldn't be surprised in those cases to find that things aren't all that they're cracked up to be. We shouldn't get frustrated... irritated... annoyed... downright pissed off...

But we do.. well, some people do (me included), but others handle disappointment much better. I on the other hand handle it like.... *stomps feet and throws a fit* ... like that :D

LOL.. ok, not always, but sometimes. In this case, almost. I felt like throwing a fit, stomping my feet and clenching my fists like a child with a scowl on my face, ripping my hair out of my head, anything to keep me from screaming as loud as I can. :D I didn't really do any of that, but I wanted to.

Here's to hoping next time either my expectations aren't too high or the disappointment isn't quite so bad. lol
