how should you react in the times someone disappoints you

Your mom is right. Part of life is learning that we can’t expect things to go the way we want and that people will disappoint us time and again. But it’s okay!

When someone lets us down, it can be hard to tell if our expectations were too high. If their choice did not align with what we wanted, or if things just worked out for the best.

But it’s important to remember that we have to see other people’s perspectives and take those into consideration instead of allowing our feelings and emotions to control everything. You may find there is a silver lining to discover when things don’t go our way.

I don’t begin with the assumption that I have never let someone else down. Since I fall short of perfection, it would be unfair to expect it of others.

We are so hard on others, and so gentle and understanding with ourselves.

it is frustrating when you are trying to be an open and caring person and its also your responsibility to be cool when people disrespect that.
