What makes you disappoint today?

It seems everyday I have so many reasons to be frustrated and disappointed with life, though I tried an effort to treat all those things as part of being human and part of living a more colorful life, most often than not, it gives me reasons to feel sad. Just today, when all I thought everything is perfect for my day because I accomplished one of my tasks and things to finish, one incident made me sad. I asked someone to include me in their group for a "little" talk-over-meal, but I noticed their disinterest and i was wondering why. So i did not insist and just go home. While in my room I couldn't help but ask why such rejection. I was disappointed of course. So what makes you sad today?

Oh that's so sad, I am also far away from my mother and I do missed her too. I am hoping you can get in touch with your mother. Hope you can find ways there. God bless!

I have just been looking at some pics of my friends at university (college), which I had to drop out of last year because of illness. It makes me sad that I had to leave and that they are having so many fun parties without me. It also makes me sad that I haven't been included in this. But I feel more positive because I am starting the course in September and will find my own group of friends and host my own parties/

That's a little sad but of course we cannot control the outside forces that influence us from day to day events, but it's good that you will be back to school and I am sure right now you have a grand time with your friends just enjoy every moment of your life.

Hi jlamela: I think that everyday has it's positive things and their negative things so it's on you to decide what of those situations you want to highlight. Things are not perfect in this world and we can't change it. In my case, I feel a little disapponted after watching all the things I have to do in my job but at the same time I feel happy because I finish the most important things I have to do in my final university project so in general I feel good. Thanks for starting this discussions. Hope things start going well in your life. Have a nice day. ALVARO.

Hello! Yes, I agree with you there are things in life that sometimes hard to comprehend and it depends on us what we gonna do with it. But of course not all things in life are disappointing, there are stuff that can make us smile.hehehe

I often experience what you experience too because yes I do have hormonal imbalances most often especially during my period but as I mature I know now how to control my emotion so that nobody will get affected with my tantrums.

hello jlamela.. YES you are right.. in everyday of our lives there are so many reasons for us to be frustrated and disappointed and its true that these things added color to our daily lives and just how you take or accept things as what they are.. just like me when i got up this morning and open my account i found out that my earnings were still too low compared to the effort i spent but i know that there are still thing missing in what i am doing so nobody to blame but me so dont worry disappointment will just pass by just be happy and cool..

Yes, that's what I am thinking also every time I feel sad, I often assured myself that sad things and loneliness are just temporary and there are also wonderful things that always happen in our lives. Like me, for the past few months I am very happy and contented with life. I try not to think of many things that make me sad.

What disappointed me today was that it was just another day I wasted, not having found a job. And I really need one. First I was supposed to work today, but they called me and said that it is postponed. Then I was supposed to have an interview, which did not happened. Now I am feeling anxious and frustrated. And I am frustraited of applying for jobs.

Hello lordcornholio:I understand what you feel, I've been there once and it was always frustrating to look for a job without any result. But don't worry, I know one day, time will be very good and favorable to you and you will get what you want in life, just pray always and trust your potentials and capacity. Try to be positive always.

Hi lord cornholio: I can understand how hard this could be, so that's the reason why I thank God for this job even if it can be hard sometimes. We need to work and sometimes, specially with a financial crisis, it's impossible to get a job and that's really frustrating. Thanks for your answer. Hope you'll find a job very soon. Have a nice day. ALVARO.

I'm disappointed today as I guess I got caught out! What do I mean? Well, it's virtually been raining all day and there have been spells of sunshine in between! I love cycling daily and I don't like to miss a ride if I can help it. Anyway, the sun was shining beautifully for a brief moment and I thought that I would head on out on my bike! That was it! After fifteen minutes into my ride it started pouring down with rain and I got absolutely drenched. Normally I would wear waterproofs but I didn't on this occasion. As a result of that my bike is in a real mess and I guess it has to go for the big cleanup once again! I have to dig out the cleaning tools and the grease and it's a lot of work, all this as a result of getting caught out in the rain! Disappointment is the order of the day today! I'm thinking that I will have a better day tomorrow though as the weather forecast is looking good once again. Andrew

That's really a sad day indeed especially if we never anticipate that it would rain. Yes, your mind set is right, tomorrow will be another day and a better one so just stay in control now.

Yes, I agree with you, we often face disappointments in a day to day basis, and just this morning another frustrations and disappointments come my way!grrrrrrr. Back to your disappointment, oh that is I think a huge disappointment since it involves profit, but I know you can rebound again and the stock market will pick up another good standing next time. Hope you will be okay then.

Well, last night my room mate woke me up at exactly 1am just to borrow my laptop. She said she needs to check her online job and other things. She's asking sorry for disturbing me but it seems that its not good anymore. She keeps on borrowing my things if I'm around but if not, she just go get it and use it. Sometimes, she steals my groceries. I'm so sick and tired of this game. When I get up early morning today, it pissed me off having headache and this makes me sad. I need to wait another one week to move to a new apartment to end this kind of deprivation.

bad weather also frustrates me sometimes especially if I want to do some outdoor activities like jogging and exercise. But I prefer cool weather than hot summer, the heat of the sun is really disappointing.

I understand what you feel, there are really officemates who are very hostile and I encountered some officemates too with that same attitude. So just ignore it anyway because it will just ruin your day with their unimaginable character.

Oh that would be disappointing, anyway just understand the situation of your friend and just accept the sad reality of your class schedule, everything will flow smoothly the next time you have a plan to go out.

The thing that make me sad today is the fact that I'm at work and not seeing my baby every minute. I would like to spent more time with her. Actually, there could be many things that can make me disappointed but I have chosen to be happy than dwell on the things that can make me sad. I try to appreciate the things that can make me happy like my life, my marriage, my family and friends.

I am very much interested to get into this one good company so I applied to a position to which I think I'm qualified. I had the final interview with the division manager, who's based in U.S., via telephone conference almost three weeks ago. Yesterday, I missed a call from the HR so they emailed me to call back when I have time. As soon as I've read the mail today, I hurriedly called the HR and was anticipating that I will hear something favorable with regards to my application. However, the HR just told me to be ready for an online assessment which I have to take anytime this week. Well, I was really disappointed that I have to pass another stage again coz I thought that the final interview I had with the division manager was the last. well, just wish me luck guys.

Am worried about things that the decision of my BF in a relationship will not harmoneously ok later on. I've been thinking of my family too about what they gonna think about me, as i am too old enough to think and decide for myself and yet still wrong. I didn't know what to choose, my future or my bf. This makes me disappointed. so what about you??
