Expectations.... THE Silent Killer


Got your hopes up for something? Got let down? Well YOU, my friend, are not alone... It sucks like a vacuum doesn't it ?...


The anxious anticipation of the plan strikes several emotions and one cannot wait for the plan to fall into its prospective place... Just to your demise, it's an epic fail: someone doesn't show up, no one answers the phone, etc.
The plan is ruined...  Often times we expect what we would be willing to do for others... This is one of the quickest ways to get let down.
Everyone doesn't think like you, therefore expecting them to react or respond as you would is a failure from the mere thought.  
In retrospect of my many disappointments I've developed my own recipe to produce a delicious amount of happiness...

Preheat your self expectations of how you will carry yourself, what you want out of life, how you will treat people, and whom you want to grow to be.
Mix 100% expectations on God to do just what He said he would do. 
Trust that He has a purpose for everything in your life. Learn from it, keep pushing. 
Remove any excess expectations from man/woman and take everything done by man as a surprise. 
As a result, disappointment should be at a minimum because there were no expectations in man to let you down.

The Iv bag is positioned upright on a stand so that there are no complications with the downward drip. This IV drip we speak of is what controls the tempo and the amount of fluid that is issued to the body. Saline which contains both salt and water    is what is most commonly administered to patients who are dehydrated or to prevent dehydration. Needless to say, the IV drip provides the hydration in efforts to fight off any ailment that is present for sustainability in life.  Although there’s plenty of research on the benefits of an IV drip, I’ve yet to come across the side effects of my most recent encounter with what I h

Living Beyond Mere Existence

As cliche as it might sound, it is important that you take time out to smell the roses. Sometimes we get so tangled up in the twists and turns in life that we neglect to simply enjoy life. I am guilty of constraining myself to self inflicted pressure to maintain a certain schedule or make sure everything is in order. This year I made up in my mind that I would not be all work no play. My trip to the Bahamas reiterated the need to just enjoy my singleness and reward myself for all of my hard work. As I lay on the beach, listening the waves crash amongst the sand, I could honestly say I was at peace. No responsibilities, no deadlines, no schedule, no checking in, no cares , no worries, no pressure, no negativity .... Mere peace. As the sun glistened on the beautiful water, I began to self reflect. Life is a beautiful thing. Embrace it . Live in the moment. Take pictures. Make memories. Travel . Let your hair down. Nothing in life is that serious, unless you make it.   Avoid going throug
