Never have Expectations.

I have come to the conclusion that if you keep your hopes high, and have expectations that you WILL get let down in every way possible. People may say things, but who the heck knows if they actually will do what they say. We all listen to what people say or look for hints as to if they actually care or not. The hard part about that is that the little things give us hope. Hope is some things is good to have, but hope in all things is impossible. I have hope that the Lord will always be there, but thats about it. God does what he says he will, if you keep your end of the bargain, but you can't say that about most people. Sometimes I wonder what life would be like if I was just alone, relying on no one and loving no one. Would life be easier if I was totally and completely independent of everyone? Of course I couldn't ever get to that point, but I often wonder about it. Is this world going to get so bad that we can't even believe the ones that are closest to us? Is the word going to become so meaningless that no one will believe anything that anyone says? I hope not.. I really hope not. I will say one thing though.. its really hard to put your heart and soul into something when there are oppositions pushing on you from each side. Love for people who act careless towards you may be the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. I'm really trying to be a better person, I'm trying to make changes in my life so that it can be the most fulfilling. Hopefully someday it will be worth it. But for now, my expectations have been brutally ignored, kicked, and spat on, and it's time I take a new approach to things.
