Blue Glow

Sometimes I feel like I'm stuck in a world where I speak another language and even my damn subtitles are... well, electronic brain pancake crystal elderly.

There's always an expectation.
Life runs on expectation.

I expect to do this, I expect you to do this, you expect this of me.... and the list goes on.
But noone ever said that expectations were good.

Expectations to real life are what assumptions are to science.
They make life easier.

From Dictionary.com:
sim·ple [sim-puhl] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation adjective, -pler, -plest, noun –adjective
...
10.not grand or sophisticated; unpretentious: a simple way of life.


But there is a point when everything is... too simple, too black and white.
But without expectations, does that mean that life becomes complicated?
Should we rid ourselves of expectations purely for our own benefit?
Save ourselves from disappointment? Pain? Humiliation?
