I guess having high expectations on something won't really pay off. When expectations aren't met, it causes disappointments and frustrations. So does having high hopes. You wished it would turn out with a happy ending. Yet, some things just don't work their way as how you expected and really wanted it to be, turn out to be a haywire and bang, you'd find cursing at yourself for the false hopes and dreams that you've been weaving.
What a waste. You're emotionally, mentally and physically drained. And in the end, you'd find yourself locked up in a lowly lit room, sobbing and dreading over the shattered dreams and hopes. Pillows all wet from the streaming of tears.
Then you start to rationalize and realize, this isn't the way. This definitely is not the correct way if you wish to fix things. So you try to gather all your might and strength, wipe the wet cheeks from the tears, pull yourself out from bed, scroll up the curtains and let the light peek through the window. There, one small step to turning over a new leaf.
That's just how things are in life. Not all things are meant for you to be achieved. There are hiccups at times. You trip and you stumble. A deep cut on your knee. It bleeds, painful. As time flies, the wound will heal itself and again, you're free to skip and dance to the joyous melody.
'...no matter how severe the trauma is, if it can mend itself, it will definitely be stronger than before. That's how the body works' (mukhlis, 2010)
