Nothing is wrong in trying to have high expectations in life. But it must not be done at the expense of others, especially vulnerable people, the normal class of people who are trying hard to make two ends meet.
Because of some people dishonest behavior, unfair things do happen at times. Maybe from your point of view, it’s not fair, but to others it is. Life is complicated, it is not straightforward and you don’t always know all the influence that work against you.
It is good to know that we can control our emotions and thoughts in order to pick ourselves up and keep going - when dealing with disappointment at any level.
