I completely agree with you. If people would accept that, there would be a lot less disapointment going around..
Ain't it so. And sometimes even that's not horribly dependable.
True words, Niobe. And this post couldn't have come on a better day. Fits just perfect...
I hate those days when you have to face that fact. It almost never comes with a happy feeling.
Sad, but true. Also, what Tash said.
Mm-hm.
Amen sista. xoxoxoxo
hope nothing bad happened to make you post this!
For some reason this makes me really sad. Are you ok? And did you get my 2010 card?
-e
@trish: Nope, nothing bad happened. At least not to me. Sigh.
@e: and I did get your card. Many thanks!
Tell whomever the bad thing happened to that I'm sending {{{hugs}}}
Sigh. You're so right.
i am sick of learning this lesson over and over again. what is the saying about a fool expecting a different outcome from doing the same thing over and over?
sigh...yeah. But sometimes, people can surprise you. Assuming I'm not a gullible fool.
I know your answer to that one. ;P
true, true
Seeing Angie's response reminded me of the motto of a colleague of mine: "Low expectations." At times I think it's absolutely brilliant. And other times I think, how sad.
