“Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.” Most of us have experienced the pain of not having what we thought we would get out of something, someone or a situation. The truth is, life and people are unpredictable and situations change all the time. Sometimes we can hype ourselves up about something so much that we convince ourselves it will turn out exactly the way we wanted it to,. But. if it doesn’t, we are often left feeling irritated and disappointed and that’s probably because there was some level of expectation. Today, begin to recognize that things will not always turn out the way you want them to be, planned them to be or the way you expected them to be and that is life. Today, choose to be positive and hopeful in this present moment. You don't have to give up hope and you can still anticipate a good outcome, just be ready to be okay with "what is" and accept it. As the old saying goes: "Don't count your chickens before they've hatched." Your expectations are limiting your happiness and in truth your life. Today expect less and accept the bounty of goodness that Life gives you instead.

Just for today, I now release all expectations, knowing that Life will always take care of me. I let go of all expectations and flow lovingly with Life. I love myself and I know only good awaits me at every turn. Everything I do is a success and all is truly well in my world right now. And so it is.
