To the *incredible person* seeing this, I wish you all the best in life❤ don't over blame yourself, accept things and go forward. Don't let others define what “success” is for you. Get up, learn the skills needed and get after it, all the keys to a happy life is in your hands. Keep pushing.
Why should anyone live up to [my] expectations? This flaw had destroyed my equanimity, productivity, and dignity in the past several years. I am trying to release this weakness.
I strongly agree with you. Sometimes life become so stressful that you become mad or insane. However, I will restraint my act by for example going for a walk outside and talk to someone or alternatively I will listen to soothing music in the internet to contain my anger. Hope this advice will help somebody else to be a better person. 🕊️🕷️🤤🐻
The best way to deal with anger is to take it out in the gym and lift some heavy-ass weights! Which I'm about to do right now. Also, weight lifting is great for relieving stress, controlling your emotions, staying focused, and in control. It's the best kind of therapy for us men.
As long as you control your anger and don't let it go overboard where you get so caught up you are focusing more on yourself rather than the individual who made you mad, it's perfectly fine. You shouldn't let people push you around in life, you need to stand up to them and show them that you have some damn teeth and that you won't put up with BS. Because if you do, they're just going to continue to walk all over you and take advantage of you. Never let that be you.
I have always struggled with anger , resentments, and unforgiveness. I have been working on it with a therapist and 12 step sponsor, and it is getting better. I was told that resentments only hurt you, not the wrongdoers. I had to write down my resentments and how they affected me to see the damage to motivate me to let go. I also had to write down my part in the resentments so I could see where i was in the wrong, make amends, change behaviors, build my character and reconcile relationships if appropriate. Obviously there are some situations you don't play a part like if you were abused. I really get into psychology and human behavior so I like to understand why people act how they do for example mental illness. It helps to have compassion on them and to wish them well. This is NOT justifying or condoning it just helps to understand, have compassion, and wish them well. Its also not good to get revenge, not only because of consequence but they will get their karma and there will be justice. If it motivates them to change and make amends be happy for them.
"When you let go expectations, your mind can see the world for what it is, and when you see the world for what it is, your mind gets better at predicting, and when your mind gets better at predicting, you get better at navigating the world, and when you get better at navigating the world, you can find your way to true justice."
To live a better life, just be indifferent. All the pain and sorrow in the world will never affect you, not even if your own mom dies, no matter how close you were. Because you see the simple truth of life is this: YOU are the only one on this planet who truly matters, not your mom, not your father, not your brother, and not anyone else. It's only you. And your goal in life should always be doing what is best for YOU. If you have a good mom, then that's what she would have wanted for you also. Life's a bitch but it's all about perspective and how you deal with it. Because the harsh reality is that few people in this world really care if you die. You would have to be some kind of Superstar who has influenced millions of people for people to really "care". But that's ok, most of us are not Superstars.
my anger is about to take over me, so i decided to listen to something. luckily, i stumbled upon your video. thank you for sharing words of wisdom from buddah
It takes courage to drop expectations and pride. This empowers us and makes life more feasible. Courage is the next level of consciousness in David Hawkins Power Vs. Force. Thank you for these videos. You do great work!
I have come to situation in my life where “I can water the tree but the tree will not give me fruits because it is already dead” at first it made me angry, because I invested so much effort, but received nothing… During this video I realized that I’m attached to my investment, and therefore I thought that I deserve the “fruit” by default. I know that any kind of attachment will lead to suffering. Even if not directly but thanks for reminding to me that.
I'm constantly angry lol now I finally can understand it better and try to make things different too, I wanna live in peace, not taking everything so seriously and understanding the world as it is 🌎
I want to free myself from anger in my marriage as well. As I listened to these words a thought I had was "what if my expectations are our wedding vows?" Thoughts?
@@CaptainPhilosophical if it's about being faithful to eachother well you're staying faithful hoping in return that they do the same for you, so if they don't I believe that that is not justice so like the tree if Ur watering the plant hoping in return u get the fruit from it without hurting eachother in the process u should keep watering it but if it's a plant that doesn't grow fruits n Ur hoping for it to grow a fruit it's hopeless there's no point in watering it
What about social expectations? There are certain things that majority of people agree on. You can't help yourself from feeling angry, it's how you recognize and react to the anger that's important.
@Abika Ramdin Here's an example: Not following traffic regulations. I expect somebody to stop at the red light. I expect somebody to not cut me off. The list goes on. That's why you see so much anger on the roads.
Social expectations are created by common personal expectations (either formed from information or influence). For me, having expectations has no point at all, it is completely unnecessary compare to having motivation, inspiration, etc. As a teenager, I think I've spent the past years trying to know how to correctly respond to anger. Personally, I could say it's tough. But knowing the reason and the key to be free from anger, I believe was the best thing.
@@brendanvanbiljon3861 I was thinking something similar. Are we to imagine one won't be angry if someone blows through a stop sign and kills their child?
I also wanted to comment what you have commented. I have been tormenting myself for over a year now over a stupid fight between me and my relatives and I keep coming back to, "they JUST SHOULDN'T have behaved in the manner that they behaved in." Decency is a reasonable expectation that one can have, I believe. I have carried so much anger in me since then. I do not even know how to ease it
@Insomniacs you are so right! Diplomacy is so important when it comes to conflict resolution. And anger cuts the limbs of diplomacy and then the conflict is never settled
I feel like theres a heavy difference between expectations of what you have for others and how your feel others should treat you. I can’t get mad because someone does something I wouldn’t do, I know we have different ways of navigating life. When it comes to who I keep around, talk to, etc, I have every damn right to have expectations especially when I put boundaries, and express how I feel calmly when they do something that hurts me or is disrespectful. I have no issue isolating from people who do no good for me as I do for them. There’s no anger, just protecting my peace of mind.
i cant.. finish watching.. i can't let go of this Anger rooted in UNFAIR treatment i need justice, i need fairness but.. i can't do anything about it now 😔 i feel stepped on
Every friday morning after getting my bus to my office... My first thing to do this watching the weekly videos of your channel. It give us the way for solve every problems we facing day by day. Thank you mentor ♥️☺️💪🏾
I'm usually not angry at other people. Most of the times I just don't care. I feel anger because I don't live upto my expectations. I ask myself "why are you so bad at this. You have spent so hours on the same thing and still you repeating same mistakes"( I'm a gamer and a science student). When I'm filled with rage I usually avoid people because I know I will shout at them or say something I don't mean. If I drop expectations for myself then how I'm going to get better at what I do? Please share your thoughts on this
Hi there, having expectations and getting better is different thing. Having expectations meaning you set on something and you don't want to get any less than that. Getting better, just simply improve anything you want. For example, you feel this part of you lacking, then you make it better without expecting anything else. Having expectations is just standard, in which you can choose to use or not. But getting better is improving, innovating, and letting go of something unimportant and totally unrelated. Have a great day, and think about this wisely. I hope you'll get some answer you need.
This video is talking about dropping the expectation of others, something you can't control. You are setting some standards or expectations for yourself. I guess you need to understand why you are making the same mistakes without progressing. I suggest you can watch other videos like "How to Get Unstuck" or "The Myth of "Working Hard". You may need to look in different ways and find another path for you to make progress. I hope you will stop your rage when you are trying things differently.
@@seeissee I think expectations and getting better goes hand in hand. To expect from yourself is to have a vision, a goal which has to be achieved. And getting better is working on your goals. Think about this - you wake up in the morning. You expect from yourself to work on your project for 7 hours. That's your goal for the day. And you will get better if you work towards your goal each day. I hope this makes sense to you. Thanks for your advice ❤️🙏
It is possible to do what you love and not have expectations. It is possible to learn from your mistakes and not have expectations also. So, do what you love and you'll become less concerned of the outcome and maybe this will broaden your perspective and see the mistakes that you think you are making.
Anger is surely one of the biggest hindrances to any form of success out there. First, get rid of the worst hindrances, and then the good things will almost happen automatically!
True but you can also channel your anger and impulses in a positive manner, mainly through work and projects. We all have aggressive impulses and we all have to deal with them some way or another. Working out is one of the best ways imo. It keeps you in check/balance when things get hard and you are under a lot of stress/pressure.
@@True38 i have a question what would you if someone caus pain to you...and you start to hate anything about him including his words and the way he talks..then you will be fear to use these words or hear it..but you have to because its a general words and live with this bad sitution every minute !!
@@mohammdbie6970 Easy, I don't take anything personally and suffer fools gladly :-) If you spend time holding a grudge and hating on someone else, that person has in fact power over you and is your Master. There's nothing you can do to me that hasn't already been done to me throughout life. But I'm not a victim, I'm a truthful honest soldier and strategic warrior. The only thing that can really stand in my way is myself.
@@True38 what about narcissistic manipulative family members trying to hold you to familial obligations because they’ve done stuff for you in the past?
@@spajas8092 Just ignore them and move on with YOUR life and stop trying to please anybody else's life. In general, you should never let anybody do you a favor in such a way that you feel obligated. They are playing mind tricks on you, playing on your guilt, shame, and consciousness to make you feel bad. You must inwardly laugh at such petty matters and never be influenced by such silly tactics. They are just trying to use and control you. In life, you must learn to rely on your own arms, independence, and self-reliance by any means necessary. If you don't have any of that, you are already doomed and a victim to everybody else around you. It is much better to be hated and feared than loved if it means you rely completely on yourself. You can't please everyone anyway and you should never try to. Life is a game, there are winners and there are losers, and no one is inbetween. Do what it takes to win.
Thank you. I've been learning Stoicism and Buddhism for the last 2 years. Anger is one of the weaknesses that I often feel. I still need to learn a lot to control my anger.
3:23 i get this point the most. I expect people to be descent human beings but then you realize that the majority of people are dog water and could care less about you or anyone else. Thats when i get mad, when people dont hold up their end and make ot harder for everyone else
Expectation it’s the key word for me I expect people to respect me and when I feel disrespected I get angry and anger turns into hate and hate turns into isolation and bitterness that is so true I can not live with expectations that’s dangerous thank for this video it really helped me out
There are times when expectations are clearly laid out as part of a pre-arranged agreement or placed for the sake of collaboration/closeness. These expectations still qualify as 'should' statements, but do not seem like they are infringing on others rights or are the 'lie' that this video seems to posit. In a friendship, it is reasonable to have expectations for your friends. As an employee, it is reasonable to have expectations of your boss. Etc. etc. etc. The video frames expectations as if they always happen in isolation. But, in a lot of ways, expectations are the ways that we form any sort of closeness or collaboration with others. The relationship between parent and child is different than the relationship between friends in part because of those expectations. Failure to uphold those expectations in relationships of course leads to anger. Rather than dismissing anger as an ultimate 'bad', I've always preferred to look at it as a neutral source of information. If I am angry at a friend about something, that means that I need to talk to them about our miscommunication of expectations. If we cannot agree on these expectations, we might need to stop being friends. All of this is better than having no expectations, because then we would lack any definition to our friendship and any ability to understand when its toxic/when it isn't. Ultimately, I think this video was talking about resentment a lot more than anger. Especially in the judge examples.
It's true in many aspects but I think anger and pride is needed in some aspects. For e.g. parents or teacher can be angry on their children or student for wrongdoing or misbehaving. Of course one should not cross the line.
I'm the same way, although I strongly believe that you should always try to reach your full potential and go all out in life. It's much better than sitting around doing nothing, although that too I love at times, just being completely alone and listening to calm and beautiful music.
Think its time i started investing here. As someone who constantly struggles with themselves and finding the calm in everyday life, constantly conflicted with them self not knowing what to do and how to process alot, something meaningful to latch onto and open the world in a different perspective , i hope will be a slight cure 😴😓
After adding self worth in this equation, this teaching could really fit in today's world. However we should not get confused between our self worth and pride. Someone without self worth and pride will be ill treated repeatedly and only a person with self worth will know when to walk away.
Sometimes anger related issues runs deeper than you believe. (the layers of survival we have built around our parents/society. ) For example whenever i got into a fight with my dad, no matter how many times i tried to re-forgive him, it didn’t work with me emotionally so i began hating him. Upon asking myself why I’ve figured that my ego needed a role model to keep myself safe from pain, so i took my dad and his aspects. So admitting to self hate allowed myself to acknowledge those emotions and let that grapple my dad had over me go. Now whenever me and him talk, i don’t even try to convince him anymore as its not important to either me or my survival. I then realised “the safer you are, the less you hate.”
Been through this road and dug deep on my own for my cause of anger and resentment. It's so fulfilling that my conclusions/observations are corroborated by your explanation. Drop the expectations, thus dropping desire. And as buddha said "Desire is root of all suffering ".
Stumbled upon this bc I woke up angry today. And while listening to this, my anger turned into tears. Most of the time I mask sadness with anger so I, can be headstrong and motivated. However it gets tiring sometimes, so I meditate. I don't usually show feelings, so internalizing and hearing these words really helped. Subscribing. Thank you ❤️
Can relate to this, I've always been angry at the world for not meeting my expectations calling anyone incompetent if they don't. I have also used anger as a coping mechanism whenever I'm sad, thinking how unjust the situation was and to stop hurting and crying I resorted to anger to stop the pain and to feel motivated. I guess it's really true that everybody shares the same problems you've just never met them.
this came at a great time in my life...but, i do wonder what about contracts and agreements? what about when these are broken? Not saying that this will necessarily leads to unbridled anger. But i also wonder how this plays into economic and social injustice. Isn't complacency at the suffering of others an issue? Is it possibly an issue that wasn't as relevant for the Buddha? I mean, what would he say if he lived amongst the oppressed communities of minorities in the US? I can see how this would apply for a privileged individual...but I am worried about how this might be applied to others' suffering, passivity, ignorance, and apathy being the replacement of anger and empathy in this scenario. Thoughts?
He didn't live in a hopless world/situation.. i wonder how you apply this to human trafficking victims. Before they become numb i am sure they have anger.. only after they lose hope they lose the anger.. Or how can you not be angry if your loved one gets killed and the murderer is free cause the system is corrupt. In my opinion anger is needed. How you act on it is what defines you.
I use Anger to fuel my motivation. If you cannot turn anger into actionable change.. as one cannot overcome generational anger while children are still being murdered and abused in even the most first-world words of countries.
Great video! I would like to add that anger is a natural reaction of the body to irritation not expressed in time. Irritation is an indicator that something is wrong, as is pain. Therefore, it is important to delve into the cause in time and express your emotions "eco-friendly".
The argument about "I need to have expectation that something I eat is safe" is not addressed at all, yet it is central - some expectations are not purely egoisitical and self-centered, but group-centered. Why is "people should not sell dangerous food" not an expectation ? It's even more than an expectation, it is written into "law", which is kinda the "expectations" that the society as a whole decides to live by. If someone breaks this expectation, maybe anger is not the right answer ; but I fail to see how "letting go of the expectation" leads to anything but apathy, despair and nihilism.
There's a fine line between "letting all things be with no expectations, vs being a control freak, getting upset when u can't control everything, or certain things don't go ur way." -You have to know when it's okay to let things be as they are. BUT also when to call things out, or stick up for yourself. It's not healthy to fully have "No expectations" and let everything go, - But also not healthy to 'hold onto everything' and get angry about it.
@@legendaryzodiac574 that is just so he can continue with his viewpoint, doesn't make it right though. Same as i can say anger is just the feeling not the action. You can be angry for an injustice that will que you that something is not ok. He presents anger in video as always being an action. See i also defined anger as something slightly different without changing anger as it is. It's all in how you present or twist something.
Man...this was really good. The internal dialog of should we all carry around is powerful and unique to each of us. Many times expectations aren't communicated to the other person and when not met cause anger etc. The "I'm not a mind reader" excuse makes a lot of sense here. Most often a person isn't trying to be malicious, anger is a result of personal expectation. Better communication and asking questions is good medicine here for both sides. And to me expectations and compatibility go hand in hand.
great video, it certainly has me more aware of the negatives of expectations, though I still consider expectations to be good in either way; all be it when I walk around being treated badly versus myself to others. My every expectation and belief is to treat others as you would like to be treated if someone chooses not to do this; what it leads to is accountability and education for that person to understand that you can go around being rude to people or even worst hating individual. I can tie this to one example be it racism or discrimination that many people deal with every day, of course, this is an issue that I pray that we as a society will move to pass someday. Thank you
What about situations that we don't start and don't have control? like, walking on street, expeting nothing, but suddenly a person punch you the face and laughs 'cause you fall and are bleading, how to not have anger on this situation? the expectation of nothing is an expectation itself?
respectfully i can say that anger has helped me sort out my issues from people who i believe have wronged me. however i believe forgiveness is a more powerful tool to use in the end. remember hate and love are two sides of the same coin so i believe both are necessary in the right circumstances as you cannot have one without the other
beautiful....i was doing shadow work and came across this... i was unable to describe my feelings.... but this video was exactly what i was looking for..gratitude to you...love and light
Good video. In society norms exist and sometimes violation of these norms leads to anger. But these norms are expectations that in majority are rules. These are there for people to live as a community. However sometimes the rules are rigid and sometimes people dont follow the rules. As a result anger appears. It is not always just one's arbitrary expectations. I found this video helpful and wish this channel all the best
I love you and people like you, takijg the time to not only develop theyr own mind with wisdom aquired trough study, but also taking the time and putting in the effort to spread it to many people, everyone needs to challange theyr views and understand what these are, and who they themselves are, however very few people have the time and willingness to study, you and others like you are heroes in this day and age, even if sometimes we don't agree on your interpretations and understanding, perhaps disagreeing is a good thing, if it doesn't lead to anger of course. Thank You
I actually paused in order to absorb it. Thank you I now learn that it s my expectation that leads me to anger. Anger will lead to sorrow. But why did i expect? It is because of my pride. Pride that this expectation is for the best. That i am right and better than you. Maybe, somehow there expectation is also right on their belief. And we must calmly think of which is really the right expectation. With this we can predict what is really the right thing. This predict i am not really sure. Might as well rewatch it lol
So i rewatch it. I am not really sure about the prediction vs expectation But i think the prediction is something that the world truly is. If you do something often you can predict it. You predict that this is a safe food. Now you know what it is. Expectation is different from person to person. You expect them to be this and they are just this. Hmmm. And also you cannot possibly know if your expectation is the best for everyone. Or even for you. I love the part where it is said.. are you that special to know whats best for us? Or for everyone? Or even for you? That this direction is the one we should take. It will reallyake you humble :)
*_Anger._* *_I was known for that, honestly._* *_Those around me know for my temper outbursts, when I get angry at them. It is a natural emotion when you feel that something is wrong and you could only feel sorrow for the hurt and rage for the perpetrator._* *_But following up my comment about hatred... I feel like it is related. My anger that concentrates on eliminating factors that hold only insignificance pents up resentment. If I can't see the world as it is without someone yelling at me about literally the "inevitable", then no one will._* *_Sometimes I try to focus on me. And try not to lash out at basically the things that I said wouldn't prove anything significant._*
i often think anger shouldn't be let go or suppressed; yes, it is unproductive and psychologically harmful to be angry all the time, but anger may be useful to keep our dominance so people won't take us for granted or even use or manipulate us... ...or at least that's what i thought. i may mistaken discipline and strictness with anger. i mean, i often see charismatic people is seeming less angry or i might overlooked something
Anger is like a fire. It can become incredibly hot and can destroy everything if it's not controlled. But anger, after a while, diminishes and goes away. Hatred, instead, does not. Hate is like acid, it eats through everything and does not diminish. Hatred is anger turned disease, it's very difficult to remove and can pass generation to generation. Both anger and hatred can be weaponized as tools for mental focus towards a desired objective, but hatred destroys much more than what it may protects or helps to achieve. In my views anger is to be controlled and used for everyone's best interest, while hatred must not exist in anyone's "heart".
Thank you really needed to hear that see I am a DMD duchenne patient so need care every day and things just can go wrong, the body hurts easily but time and time again I get angry even while I don't want to. Anyway good to hear this explained so well although its from Dhamapada. I'll write this down so I don't forget why I'm getting angry…
I just need this vid to sink in deep then revisit it. I feel I can add some value to this that I hope will inspire you to make a video on my insights. In particular expectations vs desire, possibilities vs probabilities...and how then mentioned could guide our thinking, actions etc....
Personally, I am not sure whether my anger is caused by expectations. I actually believe it is mainly due to the disruption of my peace. I do not expect people to act certain way, just do not want them to bother me nor interfere with my life.
@@shae6101 hard to ignore when the goverment is taking away your freedom or your loved one getting killed and knowing the murderer will not be punished because the law is corrupt or your child raped and the rapist being protected by the law ( diplomats) and so on.. Anger has a purpose.. how we act on it is what defines us...
@@voidspirit111 Yeah it’s hard, my perception may be really warped but in my eyes the world will always have these serious frustrating things we can’t do anything about. I see it as everything happens for a reason and it’s a time to grow or to push ourselves to do best with what is in our control. Animals are dying the world is being destroyed humanity is slowly crumbling no one is opening their eyes. No one knows the secrets of the universe what will happen how these things work out but it’s all made up and none of it actually matters and dwelling on these things doesn’t change anything. All we can do is do our best to be our best. No point in feeling shitty. Nothing makes sense nothing is fair and nothing matters just so what you need to heal and feel better in the moment but inflicting pain and anger on others just throws it all back on you until it’s a built up ball of hate growing and growing being thrown around earth
The expectations I used to have were the expectations, people I know and society had of me. But most people live the double standard do rules for thy not for I. So I only have one expectation now. I expect for people to let me down in every way. I gotta say, people dont dissapoint.
I will be forever grateful to you and your channel for teaching such complex topics in such great detail and with such simplicity 😍 Much love and power to you!!
i think theres a big misnomer about anger & its use. but i appreciate the general message of the video. keep your peace dont let people take advantage or your peace. anger is sometimes justified
In the therapy world, we commonly ask, "how's that working out for you?" It is objectively NOT accurate to say that anger never has any function or positive result. It IS helpful to consider those functions and positive results, and to ask if there is a different, better way to fulfill those functions/achieve those positive results WITHOUT the negative outcomes that may also come with them. Very much in the same way that a drug might be a reliable and effective "means to some ends," and just happens to carry a mountain of harm along with it. The impulse may not be the way, is the heart of it.
1:29, 1:57 “you shouldnt have done that” 2:28 desire of people to fulfill and not violate your expectations of others 3:12 its not about you 4:12 The tree dies without watering it 5:13 prediction isn’t the same as expectation 6:37 root of anger “should be”
My anger gets the best of me im so tired and frustrated I dont know what to do along with a constant thinking mind im tired 😪 mentally and physically I wish I was normal
I think anger is more like this....watering the tree, expecting fruit in return and not getting any fruit in return. And then yes, feeling betrayed because you think the tree SHOULD bear fruit after you did what you felt was correct. Thsts more often hpw ppl get angry, you give in one place or same situation and then you dont receive. So is it wronf to have an expectation that your husband wont cheat when you have been dedicated to him for a decade. Can we say "oh who am i to think my way is best"? I want us to use better examples when we discuss topics like these. Real life example. So that the lesson can sink deeper in.
To the *incredible person* seeing this, I wish you all the best in life❤ don't over blame yourself, accept things and go forward. Don't let others define what “success” is for you. Get up, learn the skills needed and get after it, all the keys to a happy life is in your hands. Keep pushing.
I wish you all the same

As someone who struggled heavily with
Anger in the past its okay to get mad. Its what you do when you are mad that defines everything
This is what I tell all my sponsees in the twelve step program I am a part of.
I have been less than able to stop or rid myself of my anger.
I strongly agree with you. Sometimes life become so stressful that you become mad or insane. However, I will restraint my act by for example going for a walk outside and talk to someone or alternatively I will listen to soothing music in the internet to contain my anger.

The best way to deal with anger is to take it out in the gym and lift some heavy-ass weights! Which I'm about to do right now.
Also, weight lifting is great for relieving stress, controlling your emotions, staying focused, and in control.
It's the best kind of therapy for us men.
As long as you control your anger and don't let it go overboard where you get so caught up you are focusing more on yourself rather than the individual who made you mad, it's perfectly fine.
You shouldn't let people push you around in life, you need to stand up to them and show them that you have some damn teeth and that you won't put up with BS. Because if you do, they're just going to continue to walk all over you and take advantage of you.
Never let that be you.

Thank you for sharing.
and hate leads to sucking it
i use to watch xplay X)
I have always struggled with anger , resentments, and unforgiveness. I have been working on it with a therapist and 12 step sponsor, and it is getting better. I was told that resentments only hurt you, not the wrongdoers. I had to write down my resentments and how they affected me to see the damage to motivate me to let go. I also had to write down my part in the resentments so I could see where i was in the wrong, make amends, change behaviors, build my character and reconcile relationships if appropriate. Obviously there are some situations you don't play a part like if you were abused. I really get into psychology and human behavior so I like to understand why people act how they do for example mental illness. It helps to have compassion on them and to wish them well. This is NOT justifying or condoning it just helps to understand, have compassion, and wish them well. Its also not good to get revenge, not only because of consequence but they will get their karma and there will be justice. If it motivates them to change and make amends be happy for them.
"When you let go expectations, your mind can see the world for what it is, and when you see the world for what it is, your mind gets better at predicting, and when your mind gets better at predicting, you get better at navigating the world, and when you get better at navigating the world, you can find your way to true justice."
I've been really trying to regain my mindset prior to my mom's death last year and catching up on these videos is a great help thank you
I am sorry for your loss.
Peace be with you.
i work in a toxic company, being angry is the only way out
To live a better life, just be indifferent. All the pain and sorrow in the world will never affect you, not even if your own mom dies, no matter how close you were. Because you see the simple truth of life is this: YOU are the only one on this planet who truly matters, not your mom, not your father, not your brother, and not anyone else. It's only you. And your goal in life should always be doing what is best for YOU. If you have a good mom, then that's what she would have wanted for you also.
Life's a bitch but it's all about perspective and how you deal with it. Because the harsh reality is that few people in this world really care if you die. You would have to be some kind of Superstar who has influenced millions of people for people to really "care". But that's ok, most of us are not Superstars.
im so sorry for your loss and wish you the best
my anger is about to take over me, so i decided to listen to something. luckily, i stumbled upon your video. thank you for sharing words of wisdom from buddah
It takes courage to drop expectations and pride. This empowers us and makes life more feasible. Courage is the next level of consciousness in David Hawkins Power Vs. Force. Thank you for these videos. You do great work!
I have come to situation in my life where “I can water the tree but the tree will not give me fruits because it is already dead” at first it made me angry, because I invested so much effort, but received nothing… During this video I realized that I’m attached to my investment, and therefore I thought that I deserve the “fruit” by default. I know that any kind of attachment will lead to suffering. Even if not directly but thanks for reminding to me that.
I literally was discussing this today with my husband about my own anger in expectations. This is super synchronized for me lol. Thanks 😊
I feel the same way... Ive been pretty angry and this hit me right in my core situation. I can do things differently
I'm constantly angry lol now I finally can understand it better and try to make things different too, I wanna live in peace, not taking everything so seriously and understanding the world as it is 🌎
That's how it starts, the next is polygamy, congratulations, that's the true freedom in marriage
I want to free myself from anger in my marriage as well. As I listened to these words a thought I had was "what if my expectations are our wedding vows?"
Thoughts?
@@CaptainPhilosophical if it's about being faithful to eachother well you're staying faithful hoping in return that they do the same for you, so if they don't I believe that that is not justice so like the tree if Ur watering the plant hoping in return u get the fruit from it without hurting eachother in the process u should keep watering it but if it's a plant that doesn't grow fruits n Ur hoping for it to grow a fruit it's hopeless there's no point in watering it
What about social expectations? There are certain things that majority of people agree on. You can't help yourself from feeling angry, it's how you recognize and react to the anger that's important.
@Abika Ramdin Here's an example: Not following traffic regulations.
I expect somebody to stop at the red light.
I expect somebody to not cut me off.
The list goes on.
That's why you see so much anger on the roads.
Social expectations are created by common personal expectations (either formed from information or influence). For me, having expectations has no point at all, it is completely unnecessary compare to having motivation, inspiration, etc. As a teenager, I think I've spent the past years trying to know how to correctly respond to anger. Personally, I could say it's tough. But knowing the reason and the key to be free from anger, I believe was the best thing.
@@brendanvanbiljon3861 I was thinking something similar. Are we to imagine one won't be angry if someone blows through a stop sign and kills their child?
I also wanted to comment what you have commented. I have been tormenting myself for over a year now over a stupid fight between me and my relatives and I keep coming back to, "they JUST SHOULDN'T have behaved in the manner that they behaved in." Decency is a reasonable expectation that one can have, I believe. I have carried so much anger in me since then. I do not even know how to ease it
@Insomniacs you are so right! Diplomacy is so important when it comes to conflict resolution. And anger cuts the limbs of diplomacy and then the conflict is never settled
I feel like theres a heavy difference between expectations of what you have for others and how your feel others should treat you.
I can’t get mad because someone does something I wouldn’t do, I know we have different ways of navigating life. When it comes to who I keep around, talk to, etc, I have every damn right to have expectations especially when I put boundaries, and express how I feel calmly when they do something that hurts me or is disrespectful. I have no issue isolating from people who do no good for me as I do for them.
There’s no anger, just protecting my peace of mind.
i cant.. finish watching..
i can't let go of this Anger
rooted in UNFAIR treatment
i need justice, i need fairness
but.. i can't do anything about it now 😔
i feel stepped on
"Justice is when you water the tree and the tree gives you fruit" ❤
Every friday morning after getting my bus to my office... My first thing to do this watching the weekly videos of your channel. It give us the way for solve every problems we facing day by day. Thank you mentor ♥️☺️💪🏾
I met so many people who had a severe issue with pride.
I'm usually not angry at other people. Most of the times I just don't care. I feel anger because I don't live upto my expectations. I ask myself "why are you so bad at this. You have spent so hours on the same thing and still you repeating same mistakes"( I'm a gamer and a science student). When I'm filled with rage I usually avoid people because I know I will shout at them or say something I don't mean. If I drop expectations for myself then how I'm going to get better at what I do?
Please share your thoughts on this
Hi there, having expectations and getting better is different thing. Having expectations meaning you set on something and you don't want to get any less than that. Getting better, just simply improve anything you want. For example, you feel this part of you lacking, then you make it better without expecting anything else. Having expectations is just standard, in which you can choose to use or not. But getting better is improving, innovating, and letting go of something unimportant and totally unrelated.
Have a great day, and think about this wisely. I hope you'll get some answer you need.
This video is talking about dropping the expectation of others, something you can't control. You are setting some standards or expectations for yourself. I guess you need to understand why you are making the same mistakes without progressing. I suggest you can watch other videos like "How to Get Unstuck" or "The Myth of "Working Hard". You may need to look in different ways and find another path for you to make progress. I hope you will stop your rage when you are trying things differently.
@@seeissee I think expectations and getting better goes hand in hand. To expect from yourself is to have a vision, a goal which has to be achieved. And getting better is working on your goals. Think about this - you wake up in the morning. You expect from yourself to work on your project for 7 hours. That's your goal for the day. And you will get better if you work towards your goal each day. I hope this makes sense to you. Thanks for your advice ❤️🙏
@@sandrawong421 thanks 👍🏽. I will watch your suggested videos
It is possible to do what you love and not have expectations. It is possible to learn from your mistakes and not have expectations also. So, do what you love and you'll become less concerned of the outcome and maybe this will broaden your perspective and see the mistakes that you think you are making.
Anger is surely one of the biggest hindrances to any form of success out there. First, get rid of the worst hindrances, and then the good things will almost happen automatically!
True but you can also channel your anger and impulses in a positive manner, mainly through work and projects. We all have aggressive impulses and we all have to deal with them some way or another. Working out is one of the best ways imo. It keeps you in check/balance when things get hard and you are under a lot of stress/pressure.
@@True38 i have a question what would you if someone caus pain to you...and you start to hate anything about him including his words and the way he talks..then you will be fear to use these words or hear it..but you have to because its a general words and live with this bad sitution every minute !!
@@mohammdbie6970 Easy, I don't take anything personally and suffer fools gladly :-) If you spend time holding a grudge and hating on someone else, that person has in fact power over you and is your Master.
There's nothing you can do to me that hasn't already been done to me throughout life. But I'm not a victim, I'm a truthful honest soldier and strategic warrior. The only thing that can really stand in my way is myself.
@@True38 what about narcissistic manipulative family members trying to hold you to familial obligations because they’ve done stuff for you in the past?
@@spajas8092 Just ignore them and move on with YOUR life and stop trying to please anybody else's life.
In general, you should never let anybody do you a favor in such a way that you feel obligated.
They are playing mind tricks on you, playing on your guilt, shame, and consciousness to make you feel bad.
You must inwardly laugh at such petty matters and never be influenced by such silly tactics.
They are just trying to use and control you. In life, you must learn to rely on your own arms, independence, and self-reliance by any means necessary.
If you don't have any of that, you are already doomed and a victim to everybody else around you. It is much better to be hated and feared than loved if it means you rely completely on yourself.
You can't please everyone anyway and you should never try to. Life is a game, there are winners and there are losers, and no one is inbetween.
Do what it takes to win.
Thank you. I've been learning Stoicism and Buddhism for the last 2 years. Anger is one of the weaknesses that I often feel. I still need to learn a lot to control my anger.
3:23 i get this point the most. I expect people to be descent human beings but then you realize that the majority of people are dog water and could care less about you or anyone else. Thats when i get mad, when people dont hold up their end and make ot harder for everyone else
This video makes me feel a lot of anger.
Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hatred. Hatred leads to wrath. And wrath leads to suffering.
Expectation it’s the key word for me I expect people to respect me and when I feel disrespected I get angry and anger turns into hate and hate turns into isolation and bitterness that is so true I can not live with expectations that’s dangerous thank for this video it really helped me out
This is one of the top 3 channels worth watching for personal imporvement.
There are times when expectations are clearly laid out as part of a pre-arranged agreement or placed for the sake of collaboration/closeness. These expectations still qualify as 'should' statements, but do not seem like they are infringing on others rights or are the 'lie' that this video seems to posit. In a friendship, it is reasonable to have expectations for your friends. As an employee, it is reasonable to have expectations of your boss. Etc. etc. etc.
The video frames expectations as if they always happen in isolation. But, in a lot of ways, expectations are the ways that we form any sort of closeness or collaboration with others. The relationship between parent and child is different than the relationship between friends in part because of those expectations. Failure to uphold those expectations in relationships of course leads to anger. Rather than dismissing anger as an ultimate 'bad', I've always preferred to look at it as a neutral source of information. If I am angry at a friend about something, that means that I need to talk to them about our miscommunication of expectations. If we cannot agree on these expectations, we might need to stop being friends. All of this is better than having no expectations, because then we would lack any definition to our friendship and any ability to understand when its toxic/when it isn't.
Ultimately, I think this video was talking about resentment a lot more than anger. Especially in the judge examples.
Well I’ll try not to be angry at UA-cam for jamming two ads into this insightful video.
Anger and pride is also a hurdle in the way of learning and exploring new things also.
Wow ! What a game changer 😊Very liberating !!! THANKYOU I'm so glad I found this channel
It's true in many aspects but I think anger and pride is needed in some aspects. For e.g. parents or teacher can be angry on their children or student for wrongdoing or misbehaving. Of course one should not cross the line.
idk what these videos are doing to me but i’m not complaining about finding this channel
His voice is soooo serene!
i'm fine with my anger. I enjoy being alone. I don't need anything outside of myself to be happy and content.
I'm the same way, although I strongly believe that you should always try to reach your full potential and go all out in life. It's much better than sitting around doing nothing, although that too I love at times, just being completely alone and listening to calm and beautiful music.
Think its time i started investing here. As someone who constantly struggles with themselves and finding the calm in everyday life, constantly conflicted with them self not knowing what to do and how to process alot, something meaningful to latch onto and open the world in a different perspective , i hope will be a slight cure 😴😓
After adding self worth in this equation, this teaching could really fit in today's world. However we should not get confused between our self worth and pride. Someone without self worth and pride will be ill treated repeatedly and only a person with self worth will know when to walk away.
Sometimes anger related issues runs deeper than you believe. (the layers of survival we have built around our parents/society. )
For example whenever i got into a fight with my dad, no matter how many times i tried to re-forgive him, it didn’t work with me emotionally so i began hating him. Upon asking myself why I’ve figured that my ego needed a role model to keep myself safe from pain, so i took my dad and his aspects. So admitting to self hate allowed myself to acknowledge those emotions and let that grapple my dad had over me go. Now whenever me and him talk, i don’t even try to convince him anymore as its not important to either me or my survival.
I then realised “the safer you are, the less you hate.”
Been through this road and dug deep on my own for my cause of anger and resentment. It's so fulfilling that my conclusions/observations are corroborated by your explanation. Drop the expectations, thus dropping desire. And as buddha said "Desire is root of all suffering ".
Stumbled upon this bc I woke up angry today. And while listening to this, my anger turned into tears. Most of the time I mask sadness with anger so I, can be headstrong and motivated. However it gets tiring sometimes, so I meditate. I don't usually show feelings, so internalizing and hearing these words really helped.
Subscribing.
Thank you ❤️
Can relate to this, I've always been angry at the world for not meeting my expectations calling anyone incompetent if they don't.
I have also used anger as a coping mechanism whenever I'm sad, thinking how unjust the situation was and to stop hurting and crying I resorted to anger to stop the pain and to feel motivated.
I guess it's really true that everybody shares the same problems you've just never met them.
@@RemRise you are both dumb. Sorry "unwise"
They should play this on every channel on TV for the next year. The world, and America, where I live, needs it.
Positive emotions and negative emotions both have equal importance to live life
very good video-but i wish it included--expectations and anger--deeply rooted into fear... anger is fear in rage
this came at a great time in my life...but, i do wonder what about contracts and agreements? what about when these are broken? Not saying that this will necessarily leads to unbridled anger.
But i also wonder how this plays into economic and social injustice. Isn't complacency at the suffering of others an issue? Is it possibly an issue that wasn't as relevant for the Buddha? I mean, what would he say if he lived amongst the oppressed communities of minorities in the US?
I can see how this would apply for a privileged individual...but I am worried about how this might be applied to others' suffering, passivity, ignorance, and apathy being the replacement of anger and empathy in this scenario. Thoughts?
He didn't live in a hopless world/situation.. i wonder how you apply this to human trafficking victims. Before they become numb i am sure they have anger.. only after they lose hope they lose the anger..
Or how can you not be angry if your loved one gets killed and the murderer is free cause the system is corrupt.
In my opinion anger is needed. How you act on it is what defines you.
Expectations are not just what you want they are what you feel you deserve from another person
So should I let go of all expectations of myself?
I use Anger to fuel my motivation. If you cannot turn anger into actionable change.. as one cannot overcome generational anger while children are still being murdered and abused in even the most first-world words of countries.
I feel as if you cracked open my mind. Finally I understand anger, and how I can do away with it.
Pride, expectations. Thank you.
Great video! I would like to add that anger is a natural reaction of the body to irritation not expressed in time. Irritation is an indicator that something is wrong, as is pain. Therefore, it is important to delve into the cause in time and express your emotions "eco-friendly".
That adds up to what Jim Carey told about depression. Thing is, Ive been there, and i still hold a lot of pain, even if the anger decreased.
It can be.
Anger poisons the mind leading to Isolation. This is me ...This video resonates with me
Bro please start uploading your work on Spotify, it will really help me. Because I want to reduce my screen time and I also want to listen to you.
This is just what I needed.
My niece says she loves the animation in this video. It is quite helpful. Thank you for helping us overcome anger.
The argument about "I need to have expectation that something I eat is safe" is not addressed at all, yet it is central - some expectations are not purely egoisitical and self-centered, but group-centered. Why is "people should not sell dangerous food" not an expectation ? It's even more than an expectation, it is written into "law", which is kinda the "expectations" that the society as a whole decides to live by. If someone breaks this expectation, maybe anger is not the right answer ; but I fail to see how "letting go of the expectation" leads to anything but apathy, despair and nihilism.
Fr.
There's a fine line between "letting all things be with no expectations, vs being a control freak, getting upset when u can't control everything, or certain things don't go ur way."
-You have to know when it's okay to let things be as they are. BUT also when to call things out, or stick up for yourself. It's not healthy to fully have "No expectations" and let everything go, - But also not healthy to 'hold onto everything' and get angry about it.
He addressed it at about 5 min in, specifically. It's about rethinking and contextualizing the definition of "expectiation"
@@legendaryzodiac574 that is just so he can continue with his viewpoint, doesn't make it right though.
Same as i can say anger is just the feeling not the action. You can be angry for an injustice that will que you that something is not ok.
He presents anger in video as always being an action.
See i also defined anger as something slightly different without changing anger as it is.
It's all in how you present or twist something.
Best UA-cam channel
Man...this was really good. The internal dialog of should we all carry around is powerful and unique to each of us. Many times expectations aren't communicated to the other person and when not met cause anger etc. The "I'm not a mind reader" excuse makes a lot of sense here. Most often a person isn't trying to be malicious, anger is a result of personal expectation. Better communication and asking questions is good medicine here for both sides. And to me expectations and compatibility go hand in hand.
great video, it certainly has me more aware of the negatives of expectations, though I still consider expectations to be good in either way; all be it when I walk around being treated badly versus myself to others. My every expectation and belief is to treat others as you would like to be treated if someone chooses not to do this; what it leads to is accountability and education for that person to understand that you can go around being rude to people or even worst hating individual. I can tie this to one example be it racism or discrimination that many people deal with every day, of course, this is an issue that I pray that we as a society will move to pass someday. Thank you
What about situations that we don't start and don't have control? like, walking on street, expeting nothing, but suddenly a person punch you the face and laughs 'cause you fall and are bleading, how to not have anger on this situation? the expectation of nothing is an expectation itself?
respectfully i can say that anger has helped me sort out my issues from people who i believe have wronged me. however i believe forgiveness is a more powerful tool to use in the end. remember hate and love are two sides of the same coin so i believe both are necessary in the right circumstances as you cannot have one without the other
beautiful....i was doing shadow work and came across this... i was unable to describe my feelings.... but this video was exactly what i was looking for..gratitude to you...love and light
Thank you, these videos are always so peaceful
Ooh, another piece of perfection
Thank you very much! Really brought clarity to a problem I’ve been trying to, but unable to solve through contemplation. Much love 💗
My favt philosopher Gautam Buddha ♥️
Good video. In society norms exist and sometimes violation of these norms leads to anger. But these norms are expectations that in majority are rules. These are there for people to live as a community. However sometimes the rules are rigid and sometimes people dont follow the rules. As a result anger appears. It is not always just one's arbitrary expectations. I found this video helpful and wish this channel all the best
Anger is a secondary emotion.
The word "should" is irrational.
I love you and people like you, takijg the time to not only develop theyr own mind with wisdom aquired trough study, but also taking the time and putting in the effort to spread it to many people, everyone needs to challange theyr views and understand what these are, and who they themselves are, however very few people have the time and willingness to study, you and others like you are heroes in this day and age, even if sometimes we don't agree on your interpretations and understanding, perhaps disagreeing is a good thing, if it doesn't lead to anger of course.
Thank You
you ever thought of putting all these video in audio only on spotify? i think alot of us would love to listen to the playlist
I actually paused in order to absorb it. Thank you
I now learn that it s my expectation that leads me to anger. Anger will lead to sorrow.
But why did i expect? It is because of my pride. Pride that this expectation is for the best. That i am right and better than you.
Maybe, somehow there expectation is also right on their belief. And we must calmly think of which is really the right expectation. With this we can predict what is really the right thing.
This predict i am not really sure. Might as well rewatch it lol
So i rewatch it. I am not really sure about the prediction vs expectation
But i think the prediction is something that the world truly is. If you do something often you can predict it. You predict that this is a safe food. Now you know what it is.
Expectation is different from person to person. You expect them to be this and they are just this.
Hmmm.
And also you cannot possibly know if your expectation is the best for everyone. Or even for you.
I love the part where it is said.. are you that special to know whats best for us? Or for everyone? Or even for you? That this direction is the one we should take.
It will reallyake you humble :)
This is what I want to show my children
*_Anger._*
*_I was known for that, honestly._*
*_Those around me know for my temper outbursts, when I get angry at them. It is a natural emotion when you feel that something is wrong and you could only feel sorrow for the hurt and rage for the perpetrator._*
*_But following up my comment about hatred... I feel like it is related. My anger that concentrates on eliminating factors that hold only insignificance pents up resentment. If I can't see the world as it is without someone yelling at me about literally the "inevitable", then no one will._*
*_Sometimes I try to focus on me. And try not to lash out at basically the things that I said wouldn't prove anything significant._*
How can you clear all my doubts dude?
Thankyou so much brother,
Keep uploading✌ keep growing
Man I love this place
i often think anger shouldn't be let go or suppressed; yes, it is unproductive and psychologically harmful to be angry all the time, but anger may be useful to keep our dominance so people won't take us for granted or even use or manipulate us...
...or at least that's what i thought. i may mistaken discipline and strictness with anger. i mean, i often see charismatic people is seeming less angry or i might overlooked something
I really appreciated this video. Please keep exploring your dialogues. They convey ideas in such a powerful way.
Anger is something we need to work on because it prevents alot of things we might later regret from happening.
this is just mind opening, I have to give it some thoughts
This video saved my life thank you this was like God talking to me through this
Anger is like a fire. It can become incredibly hot and can destroy everything if it's not controlled. But anger, after a while, diminishes and goes away.
Hatred, instead, does not. Hate is like acid, it eats through everything and does not diminish. Hatred is anger turned disease, it's very difficult to remove and can pass generation to generation.
Both anger and hatred can be weaponized as tools for mental focus towards a desired objective, but hatred destroys much more than what it may protects or helps to achieve.
In my views anger is to be controlled and used for everyone's best interest, while hatred must not exist in anyone's "heart".
Would be interesting to see a video called: "The world is how it is, but, how is the world?"
Thank you really needed to hear that see I am a DMD duchenne patient so need care every day and things just can go wrong, the body hurts easily but time and time again I get angry even while I don't want to. Anyway good to hear this explained so well although its from Dhamapada. I'll write this down so I don't forget why I'm getting angry…
I just need this vid to sink in deep then revisit it. I feel I can add some value to this that I hope will inspire you to make a video on my insights. In particular expectations vs desire, possibilities vs probabilities...and how then mentioned could guide our thinking, actions etc....
Man, literally you changed the way keep up the good work !
The main lesson. Thank you.
Personally, I am not sure whether my anger is caused by expectations. I actually believe it is mainly due to the disruption of my peace. I do not expect people to act certain way, just do not want them to bother me nor interfere with my life.
But you’re the one allowing them to disturb your peace
@@shae6101 hard to ignore when the goverment is taking away your freedom or your loved one getting killed and knowing the murderer will not be punished because the law is corrupt or your child raped and the rapist being protected by the law ( diplomats) and so on..
Anger has a purpose.. how we act on it is what defines us...
@@voidspirit111 Yeah it’s hard, my perception may be really warped but in my eyes the world will always have these serious frustrating things we can’t do anything about. I see it as everything happens for a reason and it’s a time to grow or to push ourselves to do best with what is in our control. Animals are dying the world is being destroyed humanity is slowly crumbling no one is opening their eyes. No one knows the secrets of the universe what will happen how these things work out but it’s all made up and none of it actually matters and dwelling on these things doesn’t change anything. All we can do is do our best to be our best. No point in feeling shitty. Nothing makes sense nothing is fair and nothing matters just so what you need to heal and feel better in the moment but inflicting pain and anger on others just throws it all back on you until it’s a built up ball of hate growing and growing being thrown around earth
@@voidspirit111 I know baby ❤️ I’ve just been around anger too long, I’m living in a dream world where love is more powerful and above all 🎭
The expectations I used to have were the expectations, people I know and society had of me. But most people live the double standard do rules for thy not for I. So I only have one expectation now. I expect for people to let me down in every way. I gotta say, people dont dissapoint.
Thanks for this summary, it is very rich
I will be forever grateful to you and your channel for teaching such complex topics in such great detail and with such simplicity 😍
Much love and power to you!!
i think theres a big misnomer about anger & its use. but i appreciate the general message of the video. keep your peace dont let people take advantage or your peace. anger is sometimes justified
This is just beautiful, thank you 🥲
In the therapy world, we commonly ask, "how's that working out for you?" It is objectively NOT accurate to say that anger never has any function or positive result. It IS helpful to consider those functions and positive results, and to ask if there is a different, better way to fulfill those functions/achieve those positive results WITHOUT the negative outcomes that may also come with them. Very much in the same way that a drug might be a reliable and effective "means to some ends," and just happens to carry a mountain of harm along with it. The impulse may not be the way, is the heart of it.
Thank you 🙏 💜 💕

I’m in love with this channel 💁🏼👏
My anger gets the best of me im so tired and frustrated I dont know what to do along with a constant thinking mind im tired 😪 mentally and physically I wish I was normal
Its amazingly good . I wonder how one arrives at such beautiful insights. Is there a framework you follow ?
Your videos have really given me a new perspective of life. I am forever thankful to you and your work 🙌🏾
We are even taught not to get angry in the first place,,let alone letting go of anger
Love it! Thank you for sharing. I am loving this Buddha series, please keep making more! :)
this was much needed, perfectly timed video
Thank you so much! Your video is a beautiful synchronicity. Your dialogue and conclusions are exactly what I needed today ;)
I think anger is more like this....watering the tree, expecting fruit in return and not getting any fruit in return. And then yes, feeling betrayed because you think the tree SHOULD bear fruit after you did what you felt was correct. Thsts more often hpw ppl get angry, you give in one place or same situation and then you dont receive. So is it wronf to have an expectation that your husband wont cheat when you have been dedicated to him for a decade. Can we say "oh who am i to think my way is best"? I want us to use better examples when we discuss topics like these. Real life example. So that the lesson can sink deeper in.
