A couple of friends gave me a piece of advice recently, that is to not hold expectations, especially from the ones you care about. If you dont have expectations then you cannot be disappointed. I see it as: Just be happy with the good things and dont fret too hard over the bad. Sound advice, however, what kind of world would we live in where there are no expectations or aspirations? I have goals in life, things that I want to achieve, and I for one count on those that are close to me, they give me strength and the courage to face adversity and the challenges that lye ahead. If I cannot hold them to a higher standard, then where do I place myself? I will always strive to be a pack leader, its in my blood, but thats not saying much if the pack is lagging. Id rather keep searching for the good in the ones I care about and face their disappointing attributes when they arise, rather than keeping my distance and missing out on the possibility of an incredible bond. Those who know me are well aware that I wear my heart on my sleeve, I take a lot of chances, all because I know that when I find what Ive been searching for the risk will be well worth the reward.
