Expectations

Expecataions can give us hope but it can also let us down...

Should you expect something from a friend?

Expecting the world to treat you fairly
because you are a good person
is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you
because you are a vegetarian

Unhappiness is best defined as the difference between our talents and our expectations.

Treat a man as he is, he will remain so. Treat a man the way he can be and ought to be, and he will become as he can be and should be."

  1. as a philosopher said it, "there's nothing permanent in this world except change," so better expect the unexpected to let our lives go on...
