expectation vs reality

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

Between expectation and reality, there lies disappointment.

Or satisfaction, it depends.


"We always expect- from family, friends, loved ones, God and our self. I do not say it is wrong to expect something from your near ones; after all, they are the one with who you expect to be up to your level of demands. But what's wrong is that stressing your self when those expectations are not fulfilled.

Ask a question- why are you stressing your self when others do not live up to your expectations? They never say they would do this and do that, it was all you assumed.

You assumed that they will do it. You assumed that they will do anything to make you happy. You assumed that you are special for them. You are assumed that they care for you.

Your assumptions are not too wrong but it is not their fault if they don't do what you expected. They never promised you. Expecting too much is always difficult. You are being unfair."

-Tushar Agarwal

I should've known from the very first. I should've expect less. Now I'm torn.

"Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward. You can only connect them looking backwards, so you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something--your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever--because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well-worn path, and that will make all the difference.“ Steve Jobs at Stanford Graduation Speech 2005

Percayalah2, si titik akan membuat garis yang ujungnya membahagiakan

temanya seperti cerpen yg pernah gue tulis nih nind. Seperti juga note yg prnh gue tls di fesbuk. Belajar menerima. Hal2 yg ideal dlm pikiran kita, hrs disesuaikan dg kenyataan yg seringkali tdk ideal. Hoho
