"I Will Let You Down . . . ."

September 17, 2007 4:51 AM

ne of the worst feelings I can think of is the feeling that I've let someone down. I hate doing that. I hate it when people count on me and I can't--or just don't--come through.

Some conversations are hard. It's hard enough to listen to people criticize you. It's even harder when you know they're right. And it's probably hardest when it's someone you love--someone you hate letting down more than anyone.

Sometimes, when I look out at the accumulated accomplishments of my life, I'm really happy with what I see. Sometimes, though, I only see wasted potential and unkept promises.

There's no choice, really: I have to try harder to be a good person and to not let down the few people that still have faith in me.

Hey Man, don't be too hard on yourself. It sucks, but it's not like you're the only one who's let someone down. Make amends, try to do better, and don't dwell on it.

That said, let me know if you ever visit the ShakenNeighborhood, we can grab a beer.
