Rasputina - [All Tomorrow's Parties]--- How do we deal with disappointmet? Another person would have asked how Should we, but i'm not that person, and i'm not one to tell you what you should or should not do. That is for you to decide. I only know what i would prefer. I would prefer to take all things that are meant or seen to disappoint in stride, and not miss a beat. Acceptance, outward, with a brief notation on the internal... upsettness, or what ever emotion has been seen to crop up, here. Dissonance, perhaps. I Like that word. (Rasputina - [Wish You Were Here]). Whichever token word we decide to use for the schism, the unpleasant feeling, associated with not getting what we desire, there are things we (I) must remember to do, before sinking into the depths of a heavy mood.

For one thing, i tend to try to remind myself that the loss is not permanent. There are other factors to consider. Feelings, emotions, other situations. Not all me, and much, much them. It's needed, sometimes. Disapointment cand be seen to spring from the selfishness that is Desire. We want, we don't get, we are disapointed. Shrug it off, plan better, for the next time, if possible. Deal with whatever has cropped up... That is the thing that, now needs the attention.

Rasputina - [All Tomorrow's Parties]--- I only ever got one question. I was disappointed. I got over it. Now i simply wonder what's happened to everyone... Not where they've gone, per se, but, literally, what has happened to them. There seems a distinct change in the air, and the stagnation of held breath. Perhaps i'm projecting. I don't know.

Anyway, i'm off topic. I speak of disappointment, because i faced a bit, recently, in various forms. I've played it cool, on the outs, but the Ins are where it takes its toll. (Rasputina - [Wish You Were Here]). I have to wonder if the things we do, on the outside, can ever fully reflect the insides, or in a way that every one will know what you mean, as you mean to mean that which you've done... or said...

The utter expressiveness, available in simply Not doing anything, in being perfectly silent, and without action, in response to something, is overwhelming... but i've lost the sense of it. The immenesness.. enourmity of it, is gone

Tire.
