Expectations: Poison for Love

We are living in the world full of opportunities and exposures. Most of situations depends on how we introspect them. These bucket of opportunities give rise to expectations. Expectations are one of the core reason of all miseries and sadness in our life. Some great person has truly said "Nothing is good or bad , thinking make it so".

 Every coin has 3 sides, the wise decision is to stand on third side (which is seen by vary few persons) and then see both the sides very deeply before taking any decision. Most of us have habit of seeing only one side of coin and take decision, sometimes it lead us to worst results which could have been better if we have introspected both the sides before taking any decision.

We human beings are social animals. Our near and dear ones have expectations from us, we have expectations from them i.e parents, friends, lovers,etc. We almost spend our whole life in fulfilling the expectations of others (vary culture to culture). Ou parents have expectations from us, we have expectations from our friends, from our lover (better half).elationships

Expectations in relationships make them very unhealthy. When we do something for others, we start expecting the same kind of nature, devotion and faithfulness towards also. One after other, the small blocks of expectations result into a huge building of it. The moment these expectations are not fulfilled or the other person doesn't stand on our expectations, this result into grudges. These grudges become big and big if we ignore the small things and not try to remove the misunderstandings. Break ups, divorce and emotional breakdowns are the results of unfulfilled expectations only.

Attachments give rise to expectations. Now you might be thinking that if there is no attachment in Love, then it is not Love. No, it's not true. In true Love, there is no attachment with expectations, there is only soul to soul attachments in true Love. The type of attachment we have with our better half, doesn't have any expectations. It is full of Love. Love is to five and not demand anything in return. Wherever there is this type of attachment, the relationship last forever.  It's hard to be like that, but it's not impossible. If everyone would have been like that, then wouldn't have been any breakups, divorce, emotional breakdowns. The same applies for all other relationships we have in our life like with parents, friends , colleagues,etc.

Love is not a commodity which has to be exchange with other commodity. It is an ocean of treasure to be spread selflessly.
