Expect

Expectations are all around us, both good and bad. All these expectations may make us, or in other cases, break us. People expect us to work well, people expect us to finish their work, people expect us to get a higher mark in exam that everyone else, people expect us to know everything.

It’s hard to say ‘no’ to what other people ask from us sometimes. We just allow ourselves to do it. We just do what other people want us to do, and while doing it, we are afraid of achieving anything that is unsatisfactory. It is our fault if they are angry if the things we’ve done are not good enough.

We just follow, even if we feel as if their expectations are some kind of burden on our shoulders. We follow it, even if in reality, we yearn for this to stop.
