Expectation hurts! It not only hurts, I would say it kills!

Yesterday myself and one of my friend planned to have dinner in a famous hotel in our city. I was super excited about it, as things were well planned like two or three days before, we decided what to wear, so that we can look good in pictures( Which can be used as WhatsApp dp or fb pic post). The whole day I kept day dreaming on this things. I even decided what food items to order with the help of online menu, and was eagerly waiting for the fun evening with foods and my bestie. But unfortunately, in the evening she pinged me saying "My stomach is upset, we will go some other day" I was like ufffff God, why me???(I dint expressed my disappointment to her) Instead I told her to take care of herself and intake proper medicine. She being my close friend I was obviously concerned about her health, but somewhere disappointment took over me and the point we couldn’t make to the hotel, made me bit uneasy. That time it made me realize, even a simple thing can change the mood, and upsets us, it’s all because I expected way too much. It was small occasion, but little girl in me, started building dreams about it, and when it didn’t come true, made me bit unhappy and sad. So now I understand why there are so many suicides and mental illness cases amidst people, who expect something from life and when they do not get it, they are forced by their mind to kill themselves. There are many cases which I would like to highlight 1 A student taking away his/her life, when he doesn’t gets desired results or failure to get admission in a desired college. 2 A Job seeker committing suicide when he/she doesn’t gets the job he is craving for or he is placed in a mismatch job. 3 People in artistic profession killing themselves, when their work is not accepted by the audience or when they don’t get much media attention or gain the expected success. 4 Over ambitious people, who fail to achieve their aim, fell prey to depression and are prone to suicidal thoughts 5 Expectation from spouse or fiancé or gf/bf, makes people so vulnerable and leads them to take tragic steps. And so on and so forth. That’s why I say “Expectation hurts, it not only hurts, it kills, it murders ruthlessly" Expectation in life triggers people to take tragic step
