-ing

When we hope, we wish for the future to be better, and it keeps us going.

When we dream, we feel something within ourselves and imagine what could be that.

When we want we demand something for our own joy in a way that can become desperate and pathetic, that nevr truly works.

When we expect, we think that we know everything, or, for those who are modest, know what’s coming this time, somehow.

Hope and dreams are the chance given to us to make our own lives better.

Wanting is greed for false happiness.

And expecting is the true thing that can go either way. It can make you work harder to prevent the negative things expected and make sure the possitive things expected come to pass, or it can make you sit back and watch the negative things happen and wait for the positive things to happen.

So make your hopes reality, be your dreams, limit your wants, and expect great things from yourself.
