Expectations !! Root cause of all problems ?

This feeling of expectation is encoded in every human DNA. Ofcourse Yes !! Tell me, don’t you remember your mother/father use to say study hard, I want you to top in class and be best in studies. Damn, parents never understood that we are all not capable of or say not meant to be on top in same league which they have pictured about. Since the day, mom started packing lunch boxes, her expectations started building up. And indirectly, its been feeded to kids.

Now when this kid grows up, by default he is to follow the circle of expectations. Expect from friends, family and everyone who is around. Some expect less and some expect more. But no body can deny that they are selfless. They have no expectations from anyone. I don’t buy that argument. And to me, its like fooling yourself itself.

So when this expectation is encoded in our DNA then why should we bother about it ? Point is this expectation is like a virus, which grows in our body. If we don’t understand and stop it at right time, it would surely leave us heart broken and lonely.

Yeaaa.. just think of urself once. Didn’t your friend ever tell you that you expect a lot man !! and hang on, your bf and gf must have surely said that don’t expect so much from me.

Thing is we have got entangled with our self so much that, when some one expects from us, we give lecture and when its about our expectation we cry and moan.

As per me, i don’t see any solution where one would stop expecting from his near and dear ones. Then what’s the solution ?

Mate, solution is that we need to accept that fact that if someone expects anything from us there is only two reason one because person wants something desperately from you (coz of selfish nature) and second the person truly have good intentions and feelings for you. Just like your mom and dad. As i said in beginning they expect as to be top in league now that expectation is for our betterment. isn’t it ? you may agree or disagree but you can’t deny the fact that as per them they are trying to look for your better future and life.

Same goes to all of us and people around, be it friend, wife or girlfriend. If someone expects from you for certain thing its not because he or she is selfish its solely because you mean something to them. This expectation is like a thread which connects feelings of heart. Don’t let this thread break and don’t let person down just because someone has some expectations.

If you cannot meet the expectations, which do happen just be upfront and polite than being harsh and rude. At the end of the day we are humans with feelings. The day this feelings finish, there won’t be any difference between human and animal.

Let’s not be selfish and let’s not act so practical because in the end we too expect something from someone !! Respect, love and be polite. Feelings should be respected not to be kicked away.

One thought on “Expectations !! Root cause of all problems ?

  1. Very amazingly written.. But Chachu its also true that once our expectation is nt met.. Being harsh or rude is also I human nature.. How can anyone think of being polite when he/she is heart broken or feeling low because his dear one din’t valued him.?
