It's up to you

Disappointment. A word that commonly is the substitute for upset. It is the feeling of being let down to put in simple terms, and it unfortuantly has been a word attached to my name for quite some time now. Disappointment can come in many shapes and forms. It can be a friend ignoring you, it can be hurting someone to where you feel disappointed in yourself for inflicting such pain on someone, which can lead to a heart ache of guilt. I'm the type of person that dwells on these times we so wish to forget and never have to experience again. I can still remember, and I'm sure most all of you can too, remember times back to those undenyable troublesome middle school days where no matter where you turned hurt, dissapointment, and lonliness were always one step forward and two steps back. But the truth is disapointment will probably never leave you. However, how you handle it will be the thing that changes. Why let defeat consume you? Why let it give you false precepts about future events? Why let it shut you down and strike fear in your heart when everyday is a new day full of new opportunities? How will you handle your next disapointing news?
