Honestly I think if we work at it the right way, it should NOT bother us. NOW.....tell that to ME
(i have issues with that....)
But i think that we do expect too much. We need to be happy inside. Apparently if we are content with ourselves, we wont need others to keep us happy. Least thats what im working on. I try thats for sure!
Hope this helps
