Setting Expectations

It's interesting how often I get stuck on expectations. Sometimes its the ones I have that don't; can't or won't happen; sometimes its the ones I set. I remember being a teenager and even in college, not understanding all the people who said that your opinions really aren't your opinions. It seemed the inverse of logic to me.


"If I think it and feel about it, doesn't that make it my opinion?"


Apparently not. . . .




The longer I work in corporate america, the more I realize that opinions, values (both In Use and On Display) and even dreams not only are subject to change, but they are subject to context. Some days the dream is about the nice things one would do with a super long vacation or retirement window; sometimes they're more mundane - like a new self cleaning litter-box. Even the great big "passions" of one's life are like paint - they ALL need some sort of media to be seen against. The most beautiful sunset does not fill your heart with awe if there is no contrast to render it vivid.


May you find the best harmonious colours to bring your dream to most beautiful relief in your life.
