Expectations

We all set expectations, envisioning the future as we hope it will be. We plan, we prepare, and we imagine the outcomes we desire. Yet, life often unfolds on its terms, bringing unexpected changes. Despite our efforts to steer it, reality often takes a different path.

Accepting that life moves forward with or without my plans isn't about losing control; it's about recognizing that within its unpredictability, I find beauty. While I can't foresee every twist and turn, I always have the power to choose my response to whatever comes.

Yet, I always remain the author of my story, shaping it as I go. Therefore, it's sometimes wise to put expectations aside, out of constant view, to stay flexible enough to go with the flow.
