Great Expectations

So last night at small group, we reviewed what we talked about last week- emotions. As you probably know if you've ever met me before, that's something I know a lot about. Our conversation went a little something like this:

Do you go into situations with expectations? If so, you've probably experienced those expectations not being met. Would you rather have expectations and then have those expectations not be met, or would you rather go into to every situation with NO expectations and then not be excited or disappointed with the outcome?

I though about it, and I decided that I don't see how it's possible for someone to not have any expectations, even about everyday situations that don't seem to matter. I know that I have expectations all the time. I can tell myself that I don't and I can tell other people that I don't but deep down inside, I know that I do. I guess what went down yesterday with Morgan was a learning experience. I know it isn't a big deal, but at the time, it was to me.

Talking to Melissa is always refreshing. She seems to have a lot figured out- at least a lot more than I do. She's so amazing, and I feel like I sometimes take her for granted. I'm going to work hard to show her that I love her and that she means a lot to me.

I don't really know where this all came from. It might be because I've had an entire day alone to think. It's been a nice break, but I'm getting a little bored with being the only one in the house. Maybe I should shower today.

ADHD is alive and kickin' again. I love my band and I love being with those boys. We're writing a song. Justin and Dave came up with the music and Winston came up with the drums part (duh) on Tuesday. Apparently it's my job to come up with some words. I've tried song-writing in the past, mostly because I felt like I had to as a singer, and I've come up with some real crap. Dave informed me that since I'm the singer, it's my job to come up with some great lyrics. I think I'll just open up to Psalms or Proverbs and figure something out. After all, since I'm the singer, I have to do something.
