i just read something on somebody\u2019s blog about expectations, and wanting to have lower expectations about people.<\/p>\n
I FEEL THE SAME WAY.<\/p>\n
i try to have NO expectations. that way you might not get hurt.<\/p>\n
but alas, i find, it\u2019s impossible to have no expectations, and it\u2019s also much too easy to have high expectations. i have a friend who, instead of getting sucked in and taking a chance on the possibility of a connection, has opted to instead FLEE at the first chance of anything happening, and this doesn\u2019t seem like such a bad way to handle life, and i wish i could be like her. <\/p>\n
there\u2019s this great song in “jekyll & hyde,” i think it\u2019s called “facade,” and it\u2019s all about how everybody has a facade, and how behind the facade lurks all kinds of unpleasant stuff. <\/p>\n
i guess i don\u2019t think there has to be something unpleasant behind everybody\u2019s facade, but i do think that everybody has a facade at least to some degree, and i also find that the more i see what\u2019s behind the facade, the more i wish i didn\u2019t know what was there after all.<\/p>\n
not to be cynical about human beings or anything.<\/p>\n
nope, not me.<\/p>\n
ok then, that\u2019s all for tonight,<\/p>\n
