Expectations!

"The people that suffers the most are the ones that don’t know what they want”...

It seems we have no control whatsoever over our heart, conditions can change without warning, romance can make the heart pound, just like a panic pound and panic can make it stop cold in our chest; is no wonder Doctors tried hard so much times to keep the heart stable; to keep it slow, steady, regular or to stop the heart from pounding out of our chest, from the dread of something terrible or the anticipation of something else entirely...

At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, it's usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we've chosen those people, we tend to stick close by, no matter how much we hurt them…

No one believes their life is going to turn out just kind of ok. We all think we’re going to be great and we feel a little bit robbed when our expectations aren’t met. But sometimes expectations sell us short. Sometimes the expected simply pales in comparison to the unexpected. You got to wonder why we cling to our expectations, because the expected is just what keeps us steady. Still, the expected is just the beginning; the unexpected is what changes our lives…

Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories, admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know, and maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate.”...so be thankful...

There comes a point in your life, when you’re officially an adult. Suddenly, you’re old enough to vote, drink and engage in other adult activities. Suddenly, people expect you to be responsible, serious, a grown-up. We get taller, we get older. But do we ever really grow up? In some ways we grow up; we have families... we get married, divorced... but for the most part we still have the same problems that we did when we were fifteen. No matter how much we grow taller, grow older, we are still forever stumbling... forever wondering, forever young...

"So if you know what you want, how to get it will surely emerge, so be hopeful, because the unexpected is what changes our lives forever...."
