Disappointment vs. Discouragement
Analogy★★★★Disappointment is specific. It’s a failed expectation. It should have been this but it ended up being that. Discouragement is global. It’s general. There’s no use. The whole thing’s a failure. It’s all over. Disappointment is a lost battle. Discouragement is a lost war.
Arruda, Gabriel, “Disappointed but Not Discouraged” (AudioVerse teaching 34153).
