bittersweet flexibility

so i'm getting used to the idea that life is bittersweet. and also getting used to being flexible. nothing ever turns out how you want it to. and no matter how great or grand of a plan you have, it most likely will not work out the way you want it to. but it does work out. it always does. i am learning to be in the middle and finding my balance. life knocks you off your center and to grow you have to continually learn and re-find your center. every moment of every day changes you and you will never be that person again. through all this too, i'm learning to not have any expectations. expectations just lead to disappointment and suffering. without expectations you are always pleasantly surprised. it makes things wonderful, even if in the moment you may hate it. that's the beauty of moments though. they all pass. so it goes.
