When I was in fourth grade, my best friend, Grant, and I had a summer swimming birthday party together. His birthday was in the beginning of July and mine at the end of June. We were gleeful at the opportunity to share a day together. As we chased each other around the pool in party hats, we laughed and joked and had a wonderful time. Unfortunate for me, the wonderful time ended when only a few of our friends showed up for the party. Why did that disappointment overshadow the good time I was already having?
