A dictionary elucidation of expectation is something
that’s most likely to happen; a belief that may or may not be representative of
reality. Anticipations are unquestionably centered on the future; something
that not even genius can predict. Expectations can have beneficial outcomes:
when they are met there is indeed a sense of triumph but lesser advantageous
results assure frustration. If something good happens (that was not at all
expected) it counts as wonder. Expectations do take up a large proportion
of thought and emotion. Behavior towards people, events and even one’s own self
is significantly set by expectations.
