This is one intriguing thought came to mind today that why was everybody comes across just so perfect to me?? When I was kid and even for most of them I was also an absolutely perfect kid. I used to like every single person I knew then and they also adore me. But as I grew up, my likening started getting changing-up and earlier my universal likening rule for everybody started incorporating new permutation and combination I never knew why?? and when?? Why someone whom I liked so much as a kid, suddenly turned out be so imperfect, full of so many short comings for me that I just can’t stand off to him. Perhaps because when I was kid I never intended to look for short comings of his and accepted him and liked him for whatever he was. However When I grew-up I started seeing him from different paradigm altogether and expected him to be behave in certain manner and do certain things which he never did or perhaps just can’t do or he might just not capable of doing that. Same goes for “me” I had been liked so much by so many people when I was kid because their expectations from me were almost zero on the contrary when I grew-up. They started developing expectations from me in their own silent manner and when realized that I am falling short on the expectations parameter the degree of their likening to me started decreasing.

I derived the conclusion that why everybody was just so perfect as a kid, because I never interpreted their personality in my own way but accepted them, liked them for what they are. And more than anything else I never had any expectations from anybody so whatever they did for me; was a pleasant surprise and gradually such surprises added up to my likening of them. But once I grew-up, unintentionally I developed an invisible measurement instrument of my likening of people and i.e. “expectations”. Now anybody who failed on my expectations parameter with each failing transaction on this, I plotted shortcomings in him/her and gradually came to conclusion that how imperfect he or she is. And same, others did for me. With each passing day this “expectation” parameter used to create a vacuum between us sometimes luckily either of the parties realizes the mistakes and mutually work on to negate this vacuum. Sometimes it goes beyond reparable state…………..and we pay the prizes of keeping high expectations from each other….in terms of sour relationships…..but little introspections make us realize that life is too short to be “Sorrow” and too mean to be “proud” and “Egoist”…………………. And if we’ll not have expectations from each other, whatever we’ll do for each other would be a pleasant surprise and will add to our likening for each other forever……………
