Expectations
Even though my friends have been trying to tell me this for at least five years if not the past 10 years, I think I finally have come to the realization that I need to stop setting the my expectations for things and people so high so that I don’t end up with a broken heart when things don’t go the way I wanted them to. Then when things do actually turn out to be amazing they will be even more sweeter than they would have been if I expected them to be amazing in the first place.
NB: Thank you to Lisa for reminding me of this.
