Many a times I have read thoughts, articles, posts,quotes and what not on how to make life better by not expecting anything from it. For a very long period of time I conditioned myself thinking if I am expecting too much from life, people, job, relationships than I am actually doing more harm to myself. I am making myself miserable by doing so, but my perspective changed, my husband changed it all for me and when I took the oath of marriage I realized that expecting is my right in real sense.
I have all the right in this world to expect from life, If I have expectations of a good, happy, abundant life than it ain't bad, I am not hurting anyone in doing that and if imagining about these expectations gives me happiness than voila I am on the correct path. My husband has made me realize that expectations in a relationship is a must, he expects me to love him unconditionally, to stand by him in his thick and thins, to take interest in his interests and off-course vice-verse is also there. My point here is that expectations helps in blossoming the heart, expectations makes life beautiful, you shout it out loud and declare it to the universe your demands and you get what you want, it's the actions and the same actions are required in any sort of relationship you are into. You do expect from your brother/sister, from friends. Our parents expect us to do certain things, and they are not wrong in doing so, they all can expect because we are the ones who have given them the right to expect.
So, next time somebody tell you to expect nothing, tell them expectation gives happiness, it's important for any relationship to flourish and it's ok to not be able to fulfill all the expectations, you fail but that is a part of life and it shouldn't stop you from expecting. If the other person is not able to match your expectations than create a dialogue, tell them what they mean to you and how you want the relation to be like, drop that ego and speak with your heart. Love with all your might and see the change.
Expect all the good things from life, people and relationships because each one of us is worth all the happiness the universe has to offer.
