MNIDA, what its the expectation of life?

hi there mnida,

it was a nice weekend.i went to ankara and i saw my mom and my sister there this weekend.and Turkey had the elections yesterday and one party was chosen with a big percentage.except these i had the long road trip.

this weekend i realize one thing about our lives. thats about our expectations, not just mine not just my family's, not just my friend's, its all about our expectations. when i talked to my mom i realize her expectations and my sister has different expectations and also me of course i have different expectations from this life even i can say this world.

but sometimes i realize that we forgot our human side and we dont know what life can bring us. so we need to keep these expectations low sometimes as my opinion. of course everybody expect something and when he/she didnt get it, its just gonna be frustrating of course. one of my friend said something and i remember it now. he said happiness is about your expectations. you have two ways: first, keep your expectations high and if you dont get them you wont be happy. second, keep your expectations low and feel happy generally.

sometimes that sounds like you cant have your desires but thats not about it at all. for example you have money and you wanna buy a car and you want the better one but your money isnt enough for it. so does it make sense to borrow money from people to buy the expensive car. i think that you shouldnt need to think about money after buying a car. something like that.

one thing i learn from life was that. dont expect too much from people and i try to treat people like that. so i dont have to play with their feelings but i try my best to do something what people expect from me. you realize the difference i think.
