i'm expecting

I have a really difficult time with disappointment. If I am excited and anticipating something, and my expectations are not met, it tends to really bum me out. This is true of many things. Movies, books. It is tough when I am looking forward to an event or experience and it falls short of my expectations. The worst, though, is when people disappoint. Of course, I am to blame for this. I know that no one is perfect. It's not fair of me to expect people to be anything that they are not, or cannot be. So i'm working on this and dealing with it. And hopefully I will expect reality and not perfection.
