RE: Having to deal with disappointment.

Indeed, reduced expectations helps us handle disappointments. I know exactly how you felt because of your friend's inability to keep up his own end of your bargain. You must have tired yourself explaining to your couple why you didn't attend the wedding on time and in uniform. But that's life. Trust is a delicate thing, we should be careful of who we trust because trust is so very easily broken and we are left hurting. Thanks for writing.
