I was watching a movie in which a man was asked are you happy ? the man just said "I'm happy enough. I don't give much , I don't expect much , I don't get much, I'm happy with what I get, I'm happy enough ." this answer reminded me with something shakespear once said
Expectations are the source of all heart aches.
Maybe we just have to learn not to expect much then we will just be happy with what we get, maybe .
I think it's an interesting idea that low expectations lead to more happiness. Some research psychologists assert this. Intuitively, it makes sense to me. If I expect a lot more out of life than I what I have, I won't appreciate what I've already got. I can still try to make my life better, but I'm not so disappointed if it doesn't change quickly.
