...people can really disappoint You

People can really disappoint you. Sometimes you find yourself in situations where you really want to just hurt someone because they let you down. The thing to learn is that you have to stop putting yourself in situations that allow people to catastrophically disappoint you. It's very easy to find your feelings mangled on the side of the road because someone did or said something stupid that drove you to the point of wanting to cause them physical harm. However, its even easier to control the elements that contribute to making you feel this way in the first place.

For instance, deep down you already know that keeping the company of certain people isn't a good thing, whether you admit to it or not. Instead of ridding yourself of the problem by releasing these cancerous people from your life, you try your hardest to rationalize keeping them in your life. If certain people are a counterproductive force in your life that keeps you from being happy, moving forward, or have become some sort of hindrance in any way, they simply need to be removed. These people are in your life for no apparent reason other than to hold you back in some way, inconvenience you, cause you pain, or embarrassment like a pimple that suddenly rises up on your head right before picture day. The thing we do as rationally irrational people is try to keep people around that don't need to be in our lives. It is not a good thing to do, and more than likely something bad will happen if you keep them around. You will find that for the sake of making yourself a better person, it's best to let unproductive, negative, hindering people leave your life. If you don't, you might find yourself walking down a long path of hurt and deep regret...
