Expectations

There are moments when pushing harder to achieve or get somewhere just does not work. One of the most challenging aspects of being a human is to release all expectations and bask in the wonder of what is. Sometimes we really want something to happen and for whatever reason, it does not come to fruition. Instead of getting banged up about it or trying to understand the whys leading up to that moment, sometimes it is OK to be disappointed, feel the feelings, and move on. Sometimes we can find the unique experience of wonder and delight at the new possibilities that a missed opportunity presents to us, and it is in these moments that our true learning may come forward. Expectations are part of being a sentient being, and have the capacity to drive us a little bonkers. When we can become one with the infinite source of possibilities can we truly see past the one path we expected to walk and become wise to the expansiveness of opportunities.
