Expectations
aren’t the easiest way to get let down, not having them is. The crazy
thing about expectations is that when you care, it’s impossible not to
have them. Whether you voice it or not, you expect something from
somebody. Even if its expecting simple things like truth & loyalty.
Most people are just afraid to hold each other accountable and that’s
why the high standards are so low these days. So what if you fall short
at times, let downs are a part of life, not the end of it. Since when is
it a crime to naturally expect our loved ones to adore and support us?
What’s so wrong with expecting our friends to tell us what we need to
hear instead of what we may want to hear? Expectations are NECESSARY.
Especially if you ever want to be fulfilled or happy in life. If you
can’t handle disappointments productively then you won’t be able to
handle much in life. You can’t break down at every bump in the road. You
have to be tougher than that. Most anger comes from unbalanced
expectations. “You can’t love pint people on a gallon level”. Stop
expecting people to operate outside of their capacity. Not everyone is
real, trustworthy, or loyal. If you’ve learned not to expect anything
from certain people in your life, that’s a clear indication of who
shouldn’t be in it. Making exceptions is far more dangerous than having
expectations. Don’t be afraid to expect, be afraid of letting
disappointment get you so discouraged that you just settle for
“whatever”.
