Disappointment, a common emotion felt by everyone everywhere, yet people choose to deal with it in a variety of ways. Whether it's a kid pouting about a toy Santa didn't leave under his tree at Christmas, or a mom who receives her son's report card and it's below average. Well I know one person in my family who shows his disappointment very well, my dad.

And my dad had helped him out a lot in his roughest of times. Well he got mixed up in drugs and my dad told him never again but he did it again. So my dad had to fire him. This was like a stab in the back to my dad and he took it pretty hard. He was always in a bad mood and was worried about how to replace him.
             My dad has a variety of ways to handle his let downs, or disappointment. Whether it's a Cowboy game or someone acting dumb and making the wrong decisions he has a way to let
