Call me a pie-in-the-sky Pollyanna, but I believe that this kind of selfishness can be overcome.
There are people who understand that the individuals in their lives are, in fact, individuals, with their own path to follow -- Who understand that this path will not always be in line with their own needs and desires.
You know what? Eventually, everyone disappoints everyone. It is the way of life. We need to decide how we deal with it and knwo taht we do the best we can.
gat damnit..lj just ate my comment let me try again
i dont know..i think that's the way we perceive ourselves at times, but it takes a lot for people to truly disppoint me...my expectations are simple (even though i'd aspire to be free of any). it seems you've been in a heavy slump lately? what's goin on? if you want to take a walk sometime (i still owe you a soda pop) lemmie know. I think you're a good kid. ;)
