How do expectations lead to sudden and violent collapse?
Here I tell you why?
Have you ever been on a roller coaster? At a moment, you’re in the extraordinary heights of the sky. Fascinated by the beauty, breathing openly. Enjoying each second like a miracle. BUT THEN… there’s a jerk. So now you’re at the lowest point where you might suffocate.
You know what?
MY LIFE…
I consider it a roller coaster ride!
There were times I was fantastic at EVERYTHING, in academics, extracurricular activities, and so on…I used to be a dreamer who had a strong belief in herself and her abilities.
My thinking was incredible! It might shock you, or you may laugh. Yea! It was “I want it, so I’ll definitely get it” sort of thoughts. Dreams seemed to be so effortless.
AND THEN! A major fall…imagination faded. Dreams broken like fine-grounded powder. Excellence of moments died. I’ll say every worst thing i was afraid of…Happened!
I felt like a shedded leaf, just moving with the flow of air. No PURPOSE. No IDENTITY, Nothing…only disgrace and sadness.
For me, it was the end!
It could be, but then a new wave of hope emerged from somewhere inside me. And I don’t let the end happen.
Of course, it was time-consuming. And I realised, maybe I’m delusional, or that’s how life treats you. There might be a chance that GOD has some better plans for me.
Wanna know what I did? I got up, took a shower. Cried about the past. Got ready with the decision to love myself. And went on a solo date.
You won’t believe, as sometimes even I can’t. A step of self-love made me an achiever from a failed dreamer.
I might not have achieved what I wanted, but obviously what WAS and IS Soundest for me.
I have learned and experienced so much, but the one thing I wanna share is…Expectations are great, but Over-expecting! NOPEEEE…Stop it right now!
