We hold in them our trampled convictions, our fears, suppressed acts of valor, disappointments, enmity, anguish, secrets, things we wish we should have done, things we wish we shouldn’t have, regret.And continue piling them up with emotions, memories, conversations which did happen and conversations which didn’t, soured relationships and bitter people all of which we should have discarded, we keep it within until there is no space left, until the room is full, occupied after which we go on to lock it. Once in a while we happen to open the room and sight the dust accumulated all over, we relive each moment, each memory and each emotion again and soon fall upon the realization as to how deeply the room is in need of cleaning and so we clean it.We clean it so that we can fill it once more, hold it, bear it, relish it, heal from it and then finally let it go.","author":"Chirag Tulsiani","tags":["bear","conversation","conviction","disappointments","dust","fear","heal","heart","hold","let-go","memories","realization","room","storeroom","trampled","valor"],"id":12703,"author_id":"Chirag+Tulsiani"},{"text":"As someone who has dealt with his fair share of disappointment, I’ve learned the best way to cope with trouble is to approach every situation with eyes wide open; focused and determined.","author":"Carlos Wallace","tags":["determination","determination","disappointment","disappointment","disappointments","focused"],"id":15264,"author_id":"Carlos+Wallace"},{"text":"Our infinitesimal hopes should survive longer than our vast disappointments.","author":"Munia Khan","tags":["disappointment","disappointments","hope","hopeful","hopeful-and-encouraging","hopes","infinitesimal","longer","our","should","survive","vast","wisdom-inspirational","wisdom"],"id":31158,"author_id":"Munia+Khan"},{"text":"Develop the wings of loyalty and you will fly above the dooms of disappointments.

If I’ve been hurt, humiliated, shunned or sidelined I have grown that much stronger by learning precious lessons from them.
