Having expectations is one thing that we will always tend to believe in no matter how many times they haven’t really showed their existence…
The fact that we expect something from someone owns its roots to 5 simple letters that the world lives on…
“TRUST”
Forget what you expect from yourself for a moment…instead try to focus on what leads us to expect something from others?question yourself…even when we know the possibilities of the expectation being turned into reality.
The feeling of joy,importance and happiness does overwhelm us when someone makes us feel special,makes us feel that we exist for a reason…and it should!!!We should be glad that someone others than ourself made us realize OUR value in this world…
But one fact that bothers is that when we expect someone to actually show these feelings towards us and we don’t really get the golden apple…we feel bad for ourselves and the mind starts to drown in the lake of pessimism…countless emotions,sweet memories,glorifying thoughts…all seem fake…washed away by the waves of our past,haunting our memories through the day…making us choke in sadness.
Now…few people actually have the strength to have many expectations and still go strong and still continue as they always had…but what made me to actually post this in my blog is…that there are only a few…
Even I at times…expect too much from people…specially those who i trust and love a lot… and consequently at times i don’t get what i expected from them(sometimes i admit it was my fault that i did not open my mind with them,but this is old now…have almost worked on it)..but this does not lead me to INFER that its a one sided relationship and its only that i care for them and they don’t!!!many of us do think this way but we should not!!and i DONT!!…and of course its not easy to get over it easily…but these feelings tend to get lost…as i try to remmember the minutest of situations when they made me happy…even a friend getting an unexpected photocopy of something i wanted makes me smile on the situation…and then i tend to realize that what a time i’m wasting in expecting so much from others when they are already giving me so much that i have not even wished for(includes the photocopy :-p)!!!
Just feel happy for what you have and what you have got…rather than cursing others and yourselves for what you expected out of people and you did not get…Live & Let Live 
And even if u still want to keep some expectations out of someone…go and look at that tiny shiny silvery rectangular plate thats hung up in your bathroom or living room and make a expectation bag out of the person you see in it…be true to him and you will always get what you expect out of him…cause in him lies your heart,body and soul,someone that will always stand up to your expectations.:)
