We try to measure disapointment (sorrow, or even pain). We do so by using our judgement for someone's behavior.

How would you understand that something is wrong if you could't see an indication? Or worse, if you couldn't understand (or notice) the indication?

In order to understand an action you must know it's motive and result, but you must be sure that you know how to judge the motive and the result.

Each person's dispair and sorrow is relative for them. Remember - other people are just as afraid and hurt as you are. Most people don't know how to deal with their own pain and sorrow and so we collectively try to avoid the issue. Usually you can tell when someone is in pain (you can FEEL it), but you can't heal someone if you are bleeding all over them.

Furthermore it is everyone's choice to remain in their pain. If you need help, ask for it. Otherwise don't expect people to pick up on your signals of distress and offer help. Do you offer help to others that you see in pain and sorrow? Can you read their signs? I'll give you a hint: They are the same as your own.

There is an infinite well of sadness and sorrow out there for you to explore. What you need to ask yourself is "Am I done exploring this?". Until the answer is "Yes" you continue to choose to remain in your pain.

But there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. After all, isn't it fun to spelunk in the infinite abyss?
