I expect...

As we all navigate the journeys of our lives, there are some profound lessons that each of Us have to learn. I have often wondered why the elderly seem so wise and unfazed by challenges or situations around them, however in recent times I have realised that its because of their experiences and particularly because there's nothing new under the sun. Therefore having a positive attitude is very important.

So in light of my experiences I have summed up a few of things you should expect. These will help maintain a positive view to life

Here we go;
I expect
- to go through life with challenges
-that the world will not stop because am facing a challenge
-people to misunderstand me at times
- to be successful
-to love and be loved in return
-to be happy and joyful
- to be rich and prosperous
- to be healthy
-my dreams to be fulfilled with hard work and focus
-to have fun
- people to think differently and have varied perspective
-people to be insincere and selfish
-to make mistakes along the way
- to meet new people and make new friends
-to acquire new skills
-Life to be interesting.
-Good things to happen to me
-Opportunities to open up to me
-my challenges to be stepping stones for success



Those are my expectations, they help me maintain a positive happy energy around me. What are your expectations?

Older guy vs age group

Hello dearies

Trust you've been in good spirits.
Recently I was gisting with a friend of mine and our discussion veered into age difference between couples. She was of the opinion that much older men are more patient, understanding and matured especially in dealing with their wife and the challenges that come with marriage. I thought it had nothing to do with age but rather personality, and experience in life.

She shared about how her husband is 6 years older than her and how he is so matured and 'acts' appropriately. After the discussion, I looked critically at my life, my hubby and my past relationships.

My husband took a good number of years from me and I think that contributes to his being able to 'deal' with my drama.hehehe. I must say, I frustrate him sometimes, although not intentional. His being very patient with me...so am thinking, is it because of his age( which I think is nothing but numbers) or is it because of the type of person he is?

After thinking, I am of the opinion that it boils down to who he is and his experiences in life.

Reason being that, I have being in relationships where there was a big age difference...and it was hell... Also, my age group and it was ok.

But I have generally heard that older guys are more matured and know how to respect a woman compared to their younger counterpart.

Even men say older women treat them better than their age group...
I sort of agree that older women treat men better.

What do you think about it?
I'ld like to hear your views.

One Love!!!
