Growing up. old and away


Expect nothing, live frugally on surprise.

-Alice Walker




It seems that way too many times before ive expected things from people. Often i realized that i have wanted things from people that they can't give. I've made it obvious that i have wanted something and you think, maybe they just don't want the same things and you give up. Don't expect him to always call you back or to always tell you the truth. Or to tell you that they love you in the most random moments; or that they are going to join the army,

He took me by such suprise i dont understand why someone would want to leave and go fight in a war. It's not a joke i said when people die every day

but some people like living on their toes, and those people sometimes dont see the dangers in life , but he's never been like that. And i dont want him to leave, i dont want to have to see him walk away and never come back.

"Do people disappoint us? Or Do we disappoint ourselves, by being hopeful and investing too much effort in them?" - from my blog Disappointments. I can feel that is related to how our expectations aren't realised...

I've enjoy and related with some of your entries; you speak from the heart...

Maybe he finds a value in the danger that is not something you can comprehend. No matter how close we are, there are often times were we are cosmic miles apart in our minds.

I hope it's all for the best in the end.

Love your music, 'Delilah" is a wonderful song, I have never heard it before
going to try and add a playlist to my blog.
You write beautifully, I come from a family of writers, but not me.

I know the feeling of expecting too much from people--expecting them to give me things that they couldn't even possibly begin to give to me. It's scary thinking someone that we love we could never see them again, but then again, it could happen any moment, even if that person were in the army or not. Just a thought!

Thanks for checking out my blog and leaving a comment. I like your blog. You have some interesting posts. :) I hope that you have a blessed day.
