I had some disappointments occur from my last job that brought down my spirits. I am trying to alleviate this feeling I have. People will disappoint you. But it's our expectations of others that creates this disappointment.

In reality, we cannot expect others to behave as we would, and people will always disappoint and will always act as we don't expect them to.

This is why it's so important to rely on ONESELF for inner happiness.

I will not allow this recent disappointment to kill my inner joy or my happiness today. Some people DO follow through, and some people DO care. So I will focus on those people and on those feelings instead.
