Expectation. Disappointment. Blame.

If there is too much expectation for something or someone, it is likely that we will get disappointed to some degree, because our anticipation hasn't got fulfilled. But don't go blaming the other person or thing. You are the only one to blame. Sometimes it pays not to expect too much, for it brings back less pain for all around.

Attente. Déception. Faute.

Something a bit serious on this beautifully fine Christmas day, but it's just something I heard last night at church. This year's Christmas has been very relaxing and a happy time for me. Lucky me :)
