I am sure this feeling is shared by ALL of us! If not I would think something is definitely wrong with me!!! Not that I know of it already :-D
If I don't get calls from family when I expected them to call, a wish from a dear one when I felt it was needed, an update about something I think I should know...if any of these things don't happen two things follow:
1. I feel so angry with the person who did not meet my expectation ;-)
2. I feel so alone thinking no one cares for me ;-)
Well it is true and I know both 1 & 2 are just a temporary passing feeling but still once in a while I get caught up with it :-)
And then there are those days when someone does something totally unexpected:
1. A friend and a student at LSU mentioned my name in his Master's Thesis "Acknowledgement" section. I have no clue what made him do that, but it made me feel good and guilty for having my name mentioned .
2. A random person from Craigslist who has emailed me after 6 months to know I am still interested in his palce. I was the one who had contacted him 6 months ago and unfortunately he had already picked his tenant that time, He had told me he would get back to me once something comes up!
Well I always say Nature has it's own way of balancing: Some examples are
1. Boys vs Gals :-P
2. Vegetarians vs non vegetarians (Obviously)
And may be the expected being full filled by an unexpected is one of these Balancing Equations !!!
