That is a coincidence when I read "Salvation" written by Langston Hughes because I run into my feeling five years ago‚ not in the same situation with him‚ but not so many differences to be his partner.

Disappointment is certainly. It is the feeling we all get when something or someone fails to live up to our expectations. Everybody‚ at least one time in their lives
