Reunion Expectations
A few months ago I wrote about attending a high school reunion in Ohio. Soon we will be attending another one, this time in Georgia.
I had no input in the planning of the Ohio reunion whereas I’ve been on an informal planning committee for the one in Georgia.
I had no expectations this summer attending the first reunion. Because I had help in planning the upcoming reunion in Georgia I have many expectations.
I know better! Having expectations can set you up for disappointments if your expectations are not met. You can be pleasantly surprised at anything and everything if you have no expectations.
Have you attended any high school or college reunions?
Did you have any expectations before you went?
Did you enjoy the reunion?
If you didn’t enjoy your reunion, was it because you had expectations that were not met?
We could apply this concept of expecting events to unfold in a certain manner to many other issues in life.
We can expect the best in life or we can expect nothing and be surprised at what unfolds.
I am choosing to expect the best – or nothing!
