In a relationship, we often have expectations, and then, if he listens to us, we will be happy; if he doesn’t, we will be disappointed. With expectations there come disappointments, and then we oscillate between these two outcomes for decades. Eventually, we get despaired, powerless, frustrated and then escape.
Why do we have expectations? What do we want? We want to be loved. Why does the relationship becomes like this when we want to be loved? Can we think about it? Do we really love anyone? We in reality just want to find a harbor for ourselves, find a safe place for our fear, a sanctuary. If we never saw this, where will our efforts and actions lead us to? Frustration and helplessness, also distanced from our True Self.
If you find Suzhen Liu’s writings helpful, please check out her book, ‘Letting Go—Release Your Suffering’ on Amazon. From personal experience with the Letting Go Method, I can highly recommend this book!
