Expectations

"you can't always get what you want - you get what you need" The Rolling Stones

I think we sometimes feel a certain entitlement to things which we have imagine in our minds. Particularly when we feel we have put in a lot of hard work and even encouragement. And then nothing happens, or only a little of something happens. The important thing is to practice gratitude and try and change the energy around what we had hoped for. We can never forsee what is in store for us and more times than not, things have a way of working out for the better. I had hoped that a job prospect would work out to be more lucrative in money than it actualy is, but i am going with it anyway because it just came my way and I get to hear the stories of many different kinds people - who knows where this will take me. I did feel incredibaly disapointed at first and now I am trying to steady my breathing and realise what I have already in my life is enough. Enough. I have a healthy and loving family and we all live at the beach and my children love going to their school and my husband is happy in his work. We have beautiful and talented friends, I meet kind people every day and someone always smiles to me at some point in a day. Enough. sometimes I just breathe, look around, take in and breathe again. Everything will be ok.
