Margaret Mitchell quote express well the meaning of EXPECTATION
.
We lead our lives "waiting" for certain things to happen. We act by predicting a future (actions, opinions, relationships, performance) as uncertain as it is uncontrollable.
When what we had hoped for, in a totally arbitrary way does not happen, we suffer.
Unfulfilled Expectation = Self-Procured Suffering
.
Totally excluding expectations from our life would be quite impossible, but we can learn to master them by:
– Tolerate waiting: separating expectation from reality.
– Don't act on expectations: Imagine alternative action plans.
– Wondering what that expectation tells us about us and our emotional experience.
.
'Expecting nothing is a great art. When we no longer live in expectation then we live in a new dimension. We are free.'
Francis Lucille

'No one will protect what they don't care about, and no one will care about what they have never experienced. Nature is our biggest ally and greatest inspiration.' @davidattenborough
As David says – if we work together, we can create a future in which we live in harmony with nature once again. All it requires is the will. ๐ด๐ณ๐ต๐ฒ๐พ
