When we "appoint" something, we give it meaning -- ie. we believe it is true. So if I have "appointed" something as meaningful to me such as something I expect from a friend or something I expect to happen, and it doesn't happen, I am disappointed. However, if I can stay alert, I can choose to "dis" / discard that "appointment" or that belief/expectation and let it go. Long ago I heard of a teaching that was ascribed to the Native Americans about the three dark arrows in life; belief, expectation and disappointment. You can't have one with the others. If you find one of these arrows, you can track back and find the other two and let them go. These "dark arrows" block the light that is seeking to shine throughout your consciousness.
