A Rememberance

When I was a child, I dint have barbies, or video games, or cell phones, I dint even go out to play, but neither watched tv, I had heaps of books of every sort, I would sit and read them , then live my own fairy tales in my imagination, I went out to parks in the evenings and have a great time on swings, always racing against my friends to go higher and higher. I believed in magic, destiny and fairies.

I had a hard time if I ever threw tantrums, I had to learn to share whatever I got. Back then, My parents were my Angels, I was a Princess, being watched over by them and my l'il brothers were my my sweetie pies.

I did not have EVERYTHING, but I loved WHATEVER I had. Life was not a bed of roses, but it was still magically wonderful. I truly appreciate the way I was brought up and I really miss my childhood :)

Great Expectations

So the first point is that I'm not talking about the novel with the same title. I am here to talk about my own expectations. As I stated earlier that owing to our stupid human nature, we expect somethings from some people but maybe it proves a bit too much for them. But why do we expect??? Simple!!! We expect from certain people because we would do that much for them. We don't have expectations from any jolly fellow walking on the roads. But sometimes our little expectations may become heavy loads for some people so they throw them off. Of course I forgot that expectations are the cause of sorrow in this world. Gautama Buddha said so. But he is a dead man now and we seldom forget what he taught us.

Anybody who reads this might want to ask me why so much about expectations??? Because it happens to people. Now there is a message for those who crumpled my expectations and if they are alert enough, they will catch it. If they think of my expectations as a burden, fine, I expect nothing of them from now on as I expect nothing from a stranger. But I will have to repay their favor, as this is what I have been taught to do.  So these certain people must be assured that from now on I am going to treat all that they expect of me as I treat the dirt under my shoes.
