Expectations Vs Reality Quotes Romane & Geschichten

Aaron No one is perfect... No one can ever be perfect, but the world expects us to be. When people give their opinion on something it is usually given from their own point of view and how they view the world. If you don't have a strong sense of self or an anchor of truth; you will constantly live in assumption and expectation . When people assume something , they expect you to live up to their expectations. The world says perform because life is an act, however the ones you love and hold dear say ; live ... You need to stop , stop for a moment and just breathe . Living happens when you stop playing roles that don't serve you to your highest good . When the final curtain call comes and when a

“It may be predictable, but at least I have goals. Things to look forward to and to strive for in my life. What are you looking forward to? Adding more zeroes to your bank account?” I don’t have an answer. It’s rare for me to be speechless like this, but here I am. Nobody has this effect on me, but Athena manages to throw me off-balance with ease, like it’s nothing. She literally just threw the harsh facts of reality on my face.

He found me halfway through one of the thicker binders, eyebrows furrowed in concentration. "Progress?" he asked. "A little," I admitted. "It's hard." "Good," he said. "If it was easy, anyone could do it. You're not anyone." I let out a quiet laugh. "You always know how to put pressure on me.". "Expectation, not pressure," Edmund said, correcting me. "And expectation can shape a person if they let it." I nodded, although a part of me still had doubts. Adrian spoke up, leaning against the wall. "She'll be okay. Don't worry so much, Grandfather."

I switch from being playful to being serious because I was not having any of that anymore. “The crisis is still ongoing, man. You know how peeps are dying daily. What if one of you two gets caught up before then? It’s not like it is assured that you both would survive the ongoing crisis. Let us just say I am being realistic here.” “Nah, you are just being a sore pessimist that I have always known you to be. Dude, you need to change the way you think. It’s toxic.” my tone is laced with bitterness when I tell him that. I could not believe that he would bring the quote of realism to me when he damn knows well that I hate such talks. I wish I could just give him a punch for ruining my mood.

“What do you mean by real?” He looks down at his coffee cup, swirling the liquid. “I want to do something that actually matters, something that makes a difference. But my family… they have other plans for me.” I nod, understanding the weight of family expectations all too well. “I get that. Sometimes it feels like you’re living someone else’s dream instead of your own.” He meets my gaze, and I can see a flicker of recognition in his eyes. “Exactly. It’s like I’m caught in this… bubble, and I can’t figure out how to break free.”

Yet he hadn't jumped into the fact that he even never tried to win this battle with me. I just thought at first. I was complacent. Also reassuring. Convinced himself that he would defend me. That he would never easily let me go. But I was wrong at first. I was wrong to expect. He can also trust me and he will try to hold me until the end while we are next to the actuality that even if I am not his real child, he would still choose to be with me. And that reality will make us even stronger. Ironic. Reality is more real than the expectations you only expected. A thought isn't an assumption but a hoax that is believed by the mind, and it is a fiction created to deliver us from our darkest day.

I opened my eyes and turned my face to see him already staring at me. “It is the same old story, right? I will never get something which I wish for. I should have known from beginning that how can all this be so easy.” He said while I stared at him dumbstruck. Someone can be this mad for a… a company? Are there people this crazy in this world? I never thought about it. “It’s okay!” I said in a calm tone and that seem to bring him out of whatever it is before he moves away in a blink.

He told me. I refused to allow him to change my perception. “Maybe you want to begin now, no one can tell what the future holds anyway. I just do not want to hope too much on you and at the end of the day you go ahead and shatter my expectations. It wouldn't work.” I replied. “I would not be able to bounce back from it so it's better that I do not hear how I am the best person and the world and all that flattery.” He shook his head in disagreement yet refused to say a word. “I'm glad that you do not rely on empty words. Actions speak louder.” He took the words out of my mouth.

We were soon in the air and I know he won’t stop this time. But his last words kept ringing inside my head. “Stop raising the bars of your expectations ’cause I am afraid you will have to be disappointed.” ‘What does he mean by that?’ *****

"I'm sure you would realize that anyone is better than that scam.” "Even when I'm not comparing, things just don't work out! "I grumbled, hitting my feet hard on the ground. "I just wanted to know how to relate as an ordinary person. I just wanted not to create expectations or be afraid to act as I really am. I wanted to...”
