give without expectation

Well, day one isn’t going all that great. I’m really finding myself ‘expecting’ certain reactions from people and being really aggravated when I don’t get them. Argh…come on Christina, let other people just be themselves. Stop being a CONTROL FREAK!!!!!! :) Ahhh…well, there’s always tomorrow!

It seems I’m always setting myself up for disappointment and sometimes it’s just me being selfish, but I want to stop giving only receive. No expectations of what I feel their reactions SHOULD be or what I should get in return, but simple and pure unadulterated giving. Just give to give. Make someone else happy. Put myself out there without fear of what someone else may think. A 2 sided goal I suppose, but it’s important to me.
