No expectations leads no disappointments

Concept:

From past experience, even when you don’t think you have an expectation of someone, when they do something that disappoints you or upsets you. Or even do something you didn’t think they would or something that you thought they would do.

Then you already have that expectation there subconsciously. For a majority of the time, you don’t realize that you hold this expectation of people until they do something, and it only then you sort of realize that you’ve set some sort of standards for them even if they don’t know it.

So in that sense its not they’re fault if you’ve put an expectation on them that they don’t even know about.

So this is kind of a song that states that if you don’t hold this kind of expectation of people, then you won’t be disappointed if they don’t fulfil it.

No expectations leads no disappointments

No expectations leads to no disappointments,
So I’m gonna stop having expectations,
Of other people…

Cause I’m tired of being disappointed..
But the thing is,
Its not their fault…
Its mine…
For setting an expectation in the first place…

They might not even know it,
And yet I sadden if they don’t meet it,
How is fair…
On them…

No expectations leads to no disappointments,
So I’m gonna stop having expectations,
Of other people…

This way if they meet,
The original criteria,
I will feel happy and surprised,
Instead of thinking…
Its, just a normal thing…

But its hard….
Cause, in reality,
We all have our expectations,
Of various people…
Family, lovers and friends…
But truthfully its probably,
Best not to…

No expectations leads to no disappointments,
So I’m gonna stop having expectations,
Of other people…

Hmmm…. Sounds like a contradiction… 😉
