THE THOUGHT FOR THE DAY IS................


When one's expectations are reduced to zero, one really appreciates everything one does have”

Stephen Hawking


Expectations have in the past set me up for disappointment, but why should I lower my expectations and accept anything less than I deserve?

It's a good feeling, though, to have low expectations and feel satisfied when something small happens...

Dear Cibbuano,

Thank you for the comment, thought provoking, which I need at the moment.....

Upon reflection, these days my expectations are fairly low, so indeed I am grateful for small things that happen along....I guess my ego is still living on a pedestal, not having got with "the program" of changes I am trying to make in my life???

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. Often I set my expectations so low that I wonder if I am just self-fulfilling that I will feel like a failure or disappointed. Personally, I think I need to persevere through my vulnerabilities and inner-critical talk....and maybe be spurred on by some changes....

Dear Tracy,

self expectations may sometimes seem low to the person setting them, but from someone elses perspective are really quite high?
A friend pointed this out to me recently.....
Not sure about this though, still digesting it....
