The key to happiness is low or no expectations

I'd have to hold on to that belief firmly. Being such a romantic, it's easy to drift away into ideals built on pink fluffy clouds -- especially by being super selective of traits I see in people. Coupled with adoring the music they're into? That's one recipe for a self-concocted expectations disaster.

I have to let go and see people for who they are, not what I think of them to be.
