Expectations

Nothing is really perfect

Everything is flawed,

If your expectation is that high

You’re going to disappointed more,

And understand, that nothing is ever permanent

It’s not possible for anything to be this way,

Impermanence is a state grace

That we must all come to terms with,

It will take us a very long way,

To stop believing things can last forever

In the most perfect way,

Even sunsets and dawn’s fade each day

Despite such beautiful displays,

Even the most precious diamond has a flaw in some way

So don’t try living in a perfect state,

Thinking life will go on forever

This is an expectancy that is bound to fail,

So do yourself a favour don’t avail

Yourself of this illusion just be happy each day,

And live your life well and make the most of it in every way.
