For now though, I will take this as a little reminder to always try my hardest at keeping my promises, and when I'm thinking of not keeping one I'll try to remember to not be selfish and instead think of how it will possibly hurt someone.Caterpillarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01337099007066020997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042610.post-1156259454545049962006-08-22T10:10:00.000-05:002006-08-22T10:10:00.000-05:00I think that whole "letting go" things is one of t...I think that whole "letting go" things is one of the hardest.

I can lower my expectations of other people AND I can make sure that I am my word, so I don't disppoint others.....<BR/><BR/>thank you for sharing.Sunshinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03569830928076503177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042610.post-1156256916324497692006-08-22T09:28:00.000-05:002006-08-22T09:28:00.000-05:00You can only protect your child from so much.

We have to experience the bad in order to appreciate the good. Most disappointment comes from high expectations not broken promises.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11313250780161359875noreply@blogger.com
