Why we feel disapointed? Because what is happening to our lives is out of our expectation. Like, for instance, we expect that a person is serious about us but later on we found out that he is not. Like, we expect that we will have a better day, but then it is raining. Like, we expect that we will have good grades at school, but then we failed or low grades. There are things that makes us disappointed. Sometimes, we are disappointed, too, because we expect that someone will be true and honest but actually he or she is just manipulating us. We thought that someone is nice to us, but actually there is hidden agenda.

There are lots of reasons to feel that way. But we must learn to give our hearts to the Lord and ask God to give us wisdom to deal such disappointments in life.

That is life,,there so many disappointments in life that we least expect or even never expect to happen. We struggles in life so much and we reall want that we can get something or wil result to a positive output afterwards. Sometimes, no matter how hard it is we are trying so much just to make something work on and successful but still nothing happen.

I guess the people who end up suicidal are those who are so tired of facing the problems and disappointments in life. We need to be careful and control ourselves sometimes and learn to limit on everything instead of giving everything so that by the time we are so down we can adjust and we can learn what how to move on and learn from it.

We all face disappointments from time to time. We trust the Lord to help us, we go on, and things do get better!

I was, and have disappointments in life. I always ask my self, why I feel this way. Is there a better way for this?

I fully understand your hearts feelings, Ruffa. We might get disappointments but we can avoid discouragements in life. Sometimes, we must look at the positive side of the disappointments in life. Why we are disappointed? Is it because we cannot do what we wanted to do? Or we cannot achieve what we wanted to achieve in life? Or maybe there are expectations that we had expected and did not happen.

There are reasons behind why we do not get what we wanted. Just continue to trust the Lord and cry out everything to Him, He is the ultimate one who can give us what is best for us. Just pray and leave everything to Him.

Yes, Ruffa, as Crisi said all of us have disappointments. But also as Crisi said we should not allow them to be discouragements. I remember a few disappointments when I was working in the saw mill. My back was not strong enough to pull the green chain. Really heavy board come at a fast and steady pace. People have to work fast to pull the lumber off the table into piles. I have a long back, and I am built skinny, and I am just not strong enough in my back to do that kind of work. I just had to accept that. I tried a cut off saw job also, and my back was not strong enough for that job either. It is good to learn your limitations, and not push yourself to be hurt. Crisi is right in telling you to cry out to the Lord, because He will help you. All of us need help from the Lord. We don't do well enough without His help!

Sometimes, we ask ourselves, "Why the Loving God will allow all these things in my life that I really wanted to live a good life"?

Some commented that those who wanted to live a good life will be the one who will have many problems in life.

While those who live a life that is not good seldom gets problems in life. what an opposite things happenings.

I believe that it is a matter of how you will react or respond to the situation that we have had. Many of us cannot understand and has no understanding why things are happening. There are problems that we cause it to happen and while other problems is caused by other people. Or just the circumstances, like many disasters happening around us that we did not expect.

Like here in the Philippines, we have been through a lot of trials and disasters. Like flooding, we ask ourselves "Why God allow this to happen" but the fact is that due to illegal logging we experience it.

There are a lot of things that we can understand.There are a lot of things that we can control.

There are things that we cannot understand. There are things that we cannot control.

There are some things that we can understand but not control.

There are some things that we can control even though we do not understand.

I hope that I`m not making this too confusing. You do not need to understand physics to plug in an electric fan and enjoy the breeze but some people do understand.You don`t need a medical degree to live a healthy lifestyle but some healthy people have a degree.
All the understanding of topography and effects of erosion will not help you if you are at the bottom of a hill when the mud starts moving.
We should all strive to understand what we can,and accept what we cannot.I guess the hard part is knowing the difference . Realizing that we are not always in control is a good exercise in faith.The human spirit is a pretty amazing thing,be grateful that you are one,it is a gift.

Like the song goes, "We'll Understand It All Better By and By." We have so many unanswered questions now, but someday those questions will be answered. Then another thought is that when we get on the other side maybe we won't even care about answers to our questions.
