Expectations determine outcome, always!
It's your choice, what you do with the moment. If you're stuck in a traffic jam, you can get angry and honk your horn, or listen to Mozart. But when you have a very specific expectation of how things should be, then, of course, you end up hurting yourself.
The universe has no restrictions. You place restrictions on the universe with your expectations.
Base your happiness on being real, not on illusions and expectations.
Abundance comes from within it comes from thought , intention, attention and expectation
... reality stands before them, yet they don't see it, because what you call real is just the mirror image of your expectations.
