Haha - thank you! I appreciate you saying that! Always like to hear people say they appreciate my articles.
What if you expected 'nothing' and then when a situation presented itself take it from there? I mean I don't walk around in cloud fairyland expecting gold and roses, but I don't expect anything of anyone apart from myself - and then when a situation presents itself I judge accordingly.
How does that sound? Then you are not preparing yourself for the unknown!
Expecting nothing won't work. Many situations are predictable. I think this man would know what I'm talking about.
Ah man, there goes that subjective thing again lol. I love the idea behind Taoism and I do believe I took something entirely different away from that! lol
