Expectation…..!!!!

Dear Expectations,

I have given up on believing in you. It seems that for years and years and so many more years to come. You have constantly sent out more pain than you have happiness. You give a sense of hope that doesn’t equal someones reality. You portray this false imagination. You try to allow myself and others to believe that if we set certain standards and place things/people on a pedestal… That we will achieve you. Why is it that even after constant let down we allow you back into our lives? why do we still wait for you? expect you? hope and wish for you? set you so high…
To expect is to assume
to assume is to make a mockery out of yourself
I’d rather not.

I don’t expect him/her to ever speak to me again
I don’t expect those who’ve doubted me to suddenly believe
I don’t expect my lost friends and family to suddenly be found
I don’t expect immediate change
I don’t expect the best outcomes to my hard work, right away.
I don’t expect you to love me
I don’t expect freedom in a life of chains
I don’t expect anything, anymore

The only expecting I do now is the kind I can control

I expect myself to love who deserves to be loved
I expect myself  to be the best person I can be
I expect myself to try and change what is my flaws
I expect myself to be there always for my family and some friends
I expect myself to believe in me
I expect myself to try even if it’s so much easier to quit
I expect myself to forgive…Even when I know they don’t deserve it 
I expect my self to live…even when life has killed all my faith
I expect myself to fight…even when I don’t have much left
I expect myself to always remain honest to who I am

Expectations.

We place on things that we have no control over…
on people who just may not be able to live up to our needs
we can’t expect anything out of anyone or thing…
all we can do is expect what we want in ourselves. 
Put out in life what we hope…but don’t expect…to get back.

Change your mindset – Change your heart – Change your life
I expect nothing out of this…..
