Let me give you some things that might be interesting to your mind and soul. Here are possible things that you might think your expectations might rely to realities or vice versa.
Situation: You are head over heels with this girl in your work area or classroom and you know and others know that you are having a huge crush with her. You started showing some interests with the girl by giving gifts or accompanying her towards her destination, which is home almost everyday.
Expectation: You might think there is hope for you by saying "yes," and she will allow you to court you and by the time everything is okay, you will surely have a smile up to your ears if she said the very fruitful "yes" to you and after all of the hardships, you're officially "on."
Reality: The expectation can rely or even align to reality but the girl still doesn't have any thoughts of pursuing into a relationship (she's not yet ready maybe from a recent break-up or she's not yet looking for someone) or worse comes to worst, she doesn't like you. Maybe the girl you are so into have already found someone that could be better than you, or even stronger than you. For her, it's okay to receive gifts from you but as a matter of fact, she's just receiving it because she doesn't want to be so rude to refuse it. Or maybe, you gave something to her but others are using it. Hurtful yes but it is reality!
Situation: For quite some time, you have been good to your job. You've become a professional one, no tardiness, no absences, on-time passing of requirements (right before the deadline), harmonious relationship towards your colleagues and so much more.
Expectation: You are hearing other people, or even other people are telling you that you are qualified to have a higher position in your company. You are about to land on the position in which others are dreaming of, but because of your good records, you are on your way to reach it.
Reality: There are executives in your company who are defiantly blind and your performance (good, better or best) are not seen or even felt. Because they do not like you, or they are not in favor of you so whatever good things or even better things that you do for the benefit of the company you are into, they can't give you what you really want because apparently, they don't like you. Badly, they don't know you at all!
Situation: You are trying your luck to find for the treasure by playing national lotteries, racing bets, cockfights or even joining beauty pageants. You used your twenty-peso bet and your mind thinking of great numbers to bet on for the national lottery. You even subscribed to some tips online for your luck in horse racing, and other kinds of legal gambling. And you did not eat as your daily diet, read everything from magazines to coffeetable books and asked your friendly fashion designer to create you a very gorgeous gown for the pageant.
Expectation: You have the confidence of Anne Curtis and you did the good thing from talent to question and answer and your walk is absolutely powerful on the stage on a certain beauty pageant. You know by yourself that for the longest time, you already picked your numbers to be drawn on a national lottery and if you won, you still don't know what to do with that huge amount of money. You might even share your prize to most of the people in your neighborhood and buy everything from this to that.
Reality: For whatever number combinations you have been thought of, still the luck of getting those winning numbers cannot be put in your ticket. So you have to wait for another day just to try your luck. And even in beauty pageants where you stuttered while you're answering the final question. Your eyes are almost everyone trying to find the correct answer. So in return, you're just going to use your perfect "twang" regardless of the syntax, grammar and everything lexicography. And you're part of the "thank you girls!"
Situation: Both the husband and the wife have a perfect family. It seems that nobody will tear them apart, a third party, a very meaningless issue, and even a petty kind of fight that might lead to divorce.
Expectation: You are thinking ahead for your future especially by the time you already have your grandchildren. You might stay on your chosen place that you can call as your retirement haven (think of a beachfront property).
Reality: From a simple fight down to the biggest issue in your relationship, both of you come to the point that you can no longer continue your so-called "happy relationship" because both of you weren't able to feel the spark that you had before. You can't no longer fix your problem in just one sitting and your pride had already taken its toll in your mind and heart. The end result, whether your children like it or not, is separation leads to annulment and divorce.
Situation: You and your boyfriend or girlfriend have been in a relationship for quite sometime. The only thing that's left in your relationship is the blessing of the sacred sacrament called "marriage."
Expectation: Everybody is expecting you and your chosen one walking down the aisle as a classical music accompanies your traverse to the altar. Everybody is excited, hoped and glorified with your relationship that finally, able to cross the line to being together as one. Your boyfriend is wearing the best suit or the best barong looking absolutely handsome and yummy at the time of his wedding day. Your girlfriend is wearing her dream wedding dress and her bouquet of flowers everybody is making attention of. Her face is a face that can launch thousands and thousands of ships. She is envied by so many. Both of you are envied by so many people because you are the happiest couple they've known so far.
Reality: There comes the time that both of you feel exhausted towards each other. Being in a relationship for quite some time is a good news but for the longest time you've been together, isn't it okay if you just breathe for one moment. But cooling-off might lead to a total break-up and the future wishes that you've talked about had already gone out with the wind. Sadly to say but they really don't care how far had they gone with their relationship. They didn't feel the love, so be it.
Reality is the present situation, no scripts are written and no brainstorming has done. Expectations may sound pretty interesting and good to do that is why people are in it. If you want to make something into reality, don't expect too much. As what they say, just go with the flow and focus what's on you now.
Toodles!!!
