It's always a let down when you realize people aren't who you want them to be. I think I'm guilty of holding people to expectations they never agreed to in the first place.
One of my personal resolutions this year was to not allow myself to feel anxious about things I can't control. Admittedly, I'm not succeeding with this. Other people ARE things I can't control. Yet I allow myself to be affected by their actions. Or lack thereof.
I think my new goal will be two-fold. First, to lower my expectations for everyone. Maybe even myself. Second, to assume everyone is doing the best they can with what they have. I don't want to walk around this world angry.
