"Expectations" , by Erik Pevernagie, oil on canvas, 66 x 88 cm

Life is a realm of expectations.

People are anxiously waiting for the fulfillment of a dream, the realization of a colorful rainbow of happiness.

Happiness is, however, good management of expectations, and 'good management' means making an order and assembling the contingent elements of the "do's'" and the "don'ts," the "maybe yes'" and the "maybe not's."

If we want to live in agreement with ourselves and find peace with the surrounding world, good governance of our lives is merely 'good sense.'

We can always hope, but we must not live on hope. Let us step beyond expectations and remain resilient. Let us breathe consciously without fright, striving to take over our grail of free.
