Accept Not To Expect!


Ever given a thought about how casually, two completely conflicting words, ‘HOPE’ and ‘EXPECT’ are being used in the same context, believing that they both belong to the same connotation?

Ever given a thought about how potent this word ‘HOPE’ is? While on the contrary how flawed the word ‘EXPECTATION’ is?

Or ever given a thought about how expectations are nothing but gradual destruction of beautiful fortitude?

How magical and fanciful is it to think about a place where you belong to, which has no misery around, no labyrinth you are stuck in and wherever your eyes roll, all you see is winsome smiles and irresistible vibe? Oh! Well, here you are known to the fact of this place being completely unreal in existence and having no factual basis. Therefore, you ‘WISH’ to belong to this place. Or how about when I say that you actually ‘HOPE’ to be the belonging of such setting.

Okay! Now how about I ask you regarding the pressure you feel when somebody asks you to be the best in each field possible, not because you are that capable and they know it, but because they want you to be? Or maybe they ‘EXPECT’ you to be. Quite stressful huh?

When you hope for certain things to happen, it means you are known to the actual realities you are going to face, yet you wish things to be changed for how you want them to be. While when you expect for things to happen, it means you are blinding your vision to actuality and aimlessly thinking for stuff that may or may not end up being in your favor.

There have been times when I’ve heard people saying, that they’ve grown hopeless over the years, that a word named “tranquility has all of a sudden vanished from their lives, or even saying that all they want is an escape. Escape from tangibility, escape from truth, escape from every pain that they don’t want to keep alive anymore. People after being knocked off by life, more than once, tend to surrender at a point, believing that some part of their happiness has silenced forever. But does all this happen because they initially hoped? Or because they expected? They know that expectations hurt real bad, if been broken repeatedly. But you know what the tough irony is? People mask hope, while deep down somewhere, they still expect and hence the process continues.

How ambiguous and vague, life is for some people, yet they let the flames of hope pave their ways. While there are some others who, irrespective of already being known to the consequences, don’t wish to compromise on their thoughts. They keep expecting and vandalizing their own self, they keep preaching falsity and sabotaging their own self. They prefer to run away and still end up in a state they never want to be in. They want some miracle to happen, when they are the ones deciding and destroying their own fates.
