Please regard this statement:
I do my thing and you do your thing.
I am not in this world to live up to your expectations,
And you are not in this world to live up to mine.
You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.
If not, it can't be helped.
Is this statement true?

Yes. Trying to fulfil other people's expectations can mean acting against your own understandings, your own nature, your own better self. But trying to be true to yourself doesn't mean disregarding other people's feelings and being callous. It means having compassion for others as well as for yourself - for yourself as well as for others. Then, as you do your best to be the best you can, you will include other people in your life, explain to them, be sorry to have hurt them without having to change what you know you need to be and do.

Depends from person to person & also on the amount/quality of expectations ......... If you are a loner, then, yes, why should you care about what anyone expects from you! .... But if you value human contact, then you have to fulfill some basic expectations .... As regards the amount/quality part, be careful that your expectations do not start to suffocate the person on the other end because that would be the ultimate breaking point. :)

it is no longer scientists predicting the tip of the international. The Mayan calendar concludes in December 2012. despite if it would not extremely say it is while the international ends. it is meant to be greater like the tip of an era. yet human beings eager to fireside up no longer something have positioned this end of the international prediction on that date. besides, it is basically an historical caledar, and not something to rigidity approximately. So, haven't any 2nd thoughts. you will stay previous that date. finding at your avatar is like finding in a replicate.
