Practice Doesn't Make Perfect

More often than not, we only have ourselves to blame for our aches and sorrows. When things don't go the way we want them to, we might say that we'll know better next time. We put walls around us but tend to break our own rules for someone. Rejection and disappointment hurt like heck but why do we often end up throwing caution to the wind, willing to go through all of it again in the hopes that things will turn out differently?

It's not wrong to keep the faith. There could be times when even reason tells us that there's got to be more to what is being let on. There could be moments when you might just be reading too much into the situation. Perhaps it's only human to yearn for our efforts to be reciprocated but it's only wise to never assume that you're not delusional unless it's explicitly confirmed. It's our accountability to keep our emotions in check and know when to pull back.
