HOW DARE YOU LET ME DOWN -or- Today, I will realize that sometimes PEOPLE WILL LET YOU DOWN and I can let it be OK

__________________________

and maybe it's unrealistic to think
that they won't or that it's the end of
the world when they do

and just like with the rest of life,
life isn't about what happens to you
it's what you do with it...

and to realize that
there is no tragedy here
and I can almost always do
for myself what I thought I
needed you to do

for me.

And it doesn't mean
I'll always be let down
or I can't trust anyone to be there
for me or that the world is an

UNTRUSTWORTHY PLACE.

Just that I need
to pay closer attention to
what I ask of you and whether or not
it's realistic

and SEE

the obvious things
about people that are
right in front of my face
even when I
don't want to

SEE THEM.
