expectation

how simple it is to drop expectation when living in the moment.
there is no room for developing expectations of the future
when the future is not present.
and you will find each little gift of life
a happy surprise.
you will find yourself exceeding
whatever it is you could have expected,
as your limited experience would only allow
for limited expectation

"People who have great desires can never feel grateful, because whatever happens is always tiny compared to their desires...If there is no desire, if you have no idea what should happen, the things happen. Those things are already happening, but now you take note of them. You feel tremendously thrilled because this has happened and you had no expected anything...remain open in gratefulness."
-Osho
