Expectations

Even when you don’t really care about some people, they manage to disappoint you.

It doesn’t matter if you like them or not. If you get along with them or not. If you respect them or not. The moment someone is introduced to you and you talk to them a couple of times, you develop expectations. And invariably you are disapointed.

Truth is, they aren’t to blame. 98% of the times, they don’t even notice they did anything that encouraged you to develop expectations. So, you are to blame. You are human, you act like a human being.

So what if people do things that shatter your expectations and your view of them? Who cares? They don’t. And you are left to pick up the pieces. Or maybe you don’t pick up the pieces at all, simply because you don’t give a shit anymore.

But the circle starts over again with somebody else. Over and over again, human beings are social beings. Meant to be disappointed and smile anyway.

The world keeps turning, and life is beautiful anyway.

(and if you think this is about you, get a grip, you’re not that important)
