Expectations and Life

So I know it's been a while since I posted and its mainly due to the fact that right after school was over I started taking classes and things just got out of control. To update you, I did very well in both of my summer classes BUT still don't have a job. As of now, my plan is coaching a middle school field hockey team and taking classes full time. I'm looking forward to it! Coach Detmer here I come! In terms of expectations, I lately have been thinking about them a lot. Expectations are a huge part of life, and like it or not they creep into most areas of our lives from jobs, to living to family, friends and beyond. The tricky part is when those expectations don't match up quite the way you want. Lately, that has been the definition of my life. I've learned a lot of hard lessons and I've had my realities fall very short of my expectations. That's just life. I keep reminding myself of some great advice that I was given, control your controllables. There is a lot I can't control in my life right now and no matter how much I'd like to change something, there's a lot I can't. I'm ready for the next steps, wherever they lead me.
