Expectations
Is it correct not to dream, saying that expectations give pain later?
Something we do throughout our lives. We expect from others all the time. You expect too much from yourself/others, and end up gettin hurt. You expect too low and can never get out of your box. And you cannot cannot stay away from having expectations either. They are a part of how we understand and give meaning to people in our lives.
Having high expectations is never right. You judge the person according to your expectations, it's not fair to the person, and it's not fair to you. Eventually, it all leads to getting hurt. And once you do get hurt, you promise yourself not to have high expectations from anyone, but then again you still do. It's almost like, you like to believe that the person who hurt you was because of his/her fault and not yours. But sometimes it's not the other persons fault but yours. You had expected too much of the person, he/she was the same.
Some say we shouldn't expect anything from anyone, but is it the way to limit your chances of getting hurt? Sometimes, the people you least expect, hurt you the most. Why? Because it was the person who hurt you who put expectations on you.
