Expectancy in Daily Delights

“Attention is vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager. Stay eager.”― Susan Sontag

“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.” — Michelangelo

Expectancy
Not expectations
A shift from defining, demanding, control, our way
Expectancy is a way of being, an approach
Wrapped in yielding, inviting, allowing, opening, mystery, unknowing
Widening the lens
Broadening the view
Possibilities, anticipation, hope,
Enthusiasm and joy
Woven in ordinary days, simple delights
Walk lighter
Play more
Cast light.

“Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.” – Samuel Ullman
