We carry disappointments: Life takes its toll. If we lack a right perspective, disappointments and setbacks accumulate over time and can cause depression and an inability to have hope for the future. Franciscan author Richard Rohr put it this way, “Until we walk with despair, and still have hope, we will not know that our hope was not just hope in ourselves, in our own successes, in our power to make a difference, in our image of what perfection should be. We need hope from a much deeper Source. We need a hope larger than ourselves.”… “This very journey is probably the heart of what Jesus came to reveal.” I agree that when it comes to processing disappointments it is more about where you process them than how you process them.
