Hi Mellanie - The more I meditate on expectations, the more I see links to control.
Quote: But why shouldn't we expect good things from the people we love?
Sounds like because we love them, they should behave in a certain way, sooo, did they ask that we love them? This unconditional love is the hard part. Or, to turn it around, if they say they love us, they should behave in a certain way that we define? Neither seems right.
My option therefore is to enjoy what is, and manage my own expectations, because it is the only thing in my control. Not easy at all, but it seems practice does make perfect
