Simple Wisdom: Accepting Disappointment as a Part of Life

Every disappointment is a reminder of who we truly are. Each disappointment is an opportunity to examine the truth of our being. By examining what it is that is causing the disappointment we discover something about our self as well as being reminded of something we already know, but perhaps forgot. How could this not be so? Disappointment is a window to our hopes and our expectations which is an indicator of the truth of who we are, for if it bothers us to be deprived of these things, does it not point to who we see ourselves to be? If we see our lives to be incomplete without these things, then how can we not define ourselves by what hope for and what we feel deprived of? —Jim Larsen
