Expectation
went to my meditation group tonight.  the theme was expectation.  a few nice quotes from tonight's talk:

"expecting that nothing bad will happen to you just because you're a good person is like a bull not charging you because you're vegetarian."

or
"expecting perfection is like looking for a turtle with a mustache."

better to cultivate intention instead of expectation.

other zinger from an earlier talk.  respect.  re-spect.  to look at something again.  respect!  it's such a great way of breaking down what respect is, giving someone or something the room to be different, to see it as it is at that moment. a great life reminder.
