Expectations

Do not expect too much in life.
Expectations may hurt.
When you do not expect,
Every moment is a surprise
and every surprise brings a smile.

    Expectation reduces happiness and misguides what the valuable assets we have in and around ourselves. Sweet dreams Jendhamuni Sos.

    EXpectation is SUpposition.
    . …….sepost to be…….
    When GOD gave me life, what are
    GOD's expectations.
    Now let me ask myself what are my expectation when I am not sure what's tomorrow who'd be!
    When comes the pain, the problem and the solution.
    The pain needs the problem needs the solution is the
    expectation is tomorrow.
    To understand what we want or
    what we needed to have.
    Their is only onething to say "where their is a Will their is a Way" and to have it only matters.
    The expectation is not a problem
    anymore and the expect is not
    …. to much in life….. Thank you Jendhamuni Sos.

    There are those that would have "unreasonable" expectations of you every day without fail…. And so they should not be dis-satisfied if you can not fulfil their every whim and desire of you, especially if their expectations are unreasonable to start with and in the first place. Leave their bullying in their court, in other words.

My Reflection

This site is a tribute to Buddhism. Buddhism has given me a tremendous inspiration to be who and where I am today. Although I came to America at a very young age, however, I never once forget who I am and where I came from. One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.

A Handful of Leaves

Tipitaka: The pali canon (Readings in Theravada Buddhism). A vast body of literature in English translation the texts add up to several thousand printed pages. Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.

Problems we face today

Of the many problems we face today, some are natural calamities and must be accepted and faced with equanimity. Others, however, are of our own making, created by misunderstanding, and can be corrected...
