There was a time in my life when I waited for others to prove that I mattered.

Sounds familiar? You think, If they really care, they’ll reach out, they’ll make the effort.

We all crave that reassurance — that little gesture that tells us we’re not alone in this.

It stings when it doesn’t come, doesn’t it? I learned the hard way that expectations are often silent heartaches.

And the funny thing? In most cases People will be caught up in their own battles. And you don’t even know what storm they’re creating in your battle.

“Expectation is the root of all heartache.” — William Shakespeare
