Expectations

Many of us have lowered our expectation for ourseleves and for others. The thought process, and it is a sound one, is that we wont be dissapointed if we dont expect anything out of anyone.
There is an old joke that goes " Bob & I are best friends. There is nothing I wont do for him, and there is nothing he wont do for me, and in 20 yers we have never done anything for each other." Ok not a rib tickler, but the point is if you expect nothing from the world , that is usualy what you get. Relatives, friends, politicans. Doesnt matter who....we have lowered our expectations to the point that if someone DOESNT fuck us we are thrilled.

Me? Guilty of this problem. I am going to try to expect more from people, and myself, and those who do not meaure up will be thinned from the herd. Wont happen overnight, but I am raising the bar for myself and others

Leo, you are acting like a nervous holyilla......... ok that might not be a word.
