Proverbs 13:12 NKJV

Proverbs 13:12 NKJV

There is nothing more grievous than the disappointment of a raised expectation to be brought down to ground level.  Yet, in the time of the expected thing by a delay: hope deferred makes the heart sick, and languishing, fretful and peevish, and the higher the expectation was raised the more cutting is the frustration of it. 
 
There is nothing more grateful than to enjoy that, at last, that which was longed and hoped and waited for has arrived.  When the desire does come it put you into a sort of paradise, a garden of pleasure, for it is a tree of life.  The tree of life symbolizes the achievement of a deeply felt desire coming to reality.  It is like arriving to the Garden of Eden.
