A Question Of Perception

Expectations, virtually the most notable killer amoing our lives today. Undoubtedly, we jump with joy when expectations are fulfilled, but why do we continue to crumble when we fall short upon the expectations we set upon ourselves?

That brings me to question my own personal principle. Minimize the expectation you daily set upon yourself so that you may be able to fully dissolve in the joyfulness of life by having a more humble mentality, thus, putting others ahead of yourself. Now we as individuals want to achieve success and joy, but wouldn't that be impossible to achieve about expectations set in our life to the extend that it revolves only around us?

It then came to mind that without expectations, we stand as individuals who has achieved nothing. A new employee instantly becomes a robot, making the same thing through the same way, with the same results. A relationship becomes a daily routine of stagnant emotions. Life becomes merely a daily "eat, shit and sleep" routine. A life with no goals, no objectives but "going with the flow". In short, where does this bring us? Nowhere.

Even as i face my daily struggles and joys, i still continue to ponder over the expectations and goals that i have set in life. Let it be through my relationships, personal goals, or even my lifestyle, they're all still decisions that lead up to an expectation. I question myself this one very thing, how can there not be expectations when they are the stepping stones that direct me in life? I stand from where i am today about the decisions made in life and i still wonder if certain decisions made were the right ones. Success and disappointments add up to a question that continuously ring within the four walls of my mind to the extend of having words beyond by right frame of mind to describe the difficulties of having a vision that can be shared.

In the end, i wonder whether if its just me or are world bounded by indecisiveness an false hope? Perhaps that truly explains my daily struggles of choosing to be the odd one out and daring to be different. Wil i eventually prevail from this choice?
