Expectations....

I have lots of time these days so i keep evaluating something or the other. I was thinking about my friends or rather good friends and reflecting on the reasons why they are such a good friend to me. In the past one year also I made some good friends. Well i have realized one thing u have certain expectations from ur friend and if they fulfill those expectation u regard them to be good friends....but on the other hand I think am i expecting too much from the other side? My nature is to go all out for ur friends and do evrythin possible in my hands without thinking of the probs i might face...(i m not boasting but this is my nature)....and earlier though i was not expecting sth in return..i have started expecting sth from my friends,,,and in process when those expectations rae not fulfilled i become sad...and may be enter into certain arguments and then a fight (verbal) with them....later when i gave a thought about all this i realized i was wrong when i was expecting anything from my friends....so i will try not to expect anything from friends.....i realize that they might not be like me...they possibly are not in a postion to do as much as i require,,,,so inspite of being sad,,i should look at the practicality of the situation and accept whatever comes ur way....i think u should selflessly love and care....then only u can be happy.....and from now on i will try to do the same.,,,of course that wud be a bit mechanical but that is a sure way to be happy.....bas ab itna gnan hi kaafi hai.....
