What we expect is what we will recognize. If we expect for good to come, we will find ourselves recognizing the good things even in terrible circumstances. Expectation is not blind, it is based on a "real" confidence that boldly believes that a particular thing or set of events will take place. You can't realistically expect for it to never rain in Seattle. However, there are some things that we expect that we can't even fully articulate yet because it's beyond our present level of understanding (so real to us that we can taste it). Yet, that expectation ( or better yet, well grounded hope) is in the pipeline of our hearts. That expectation allows us to draw parallels, see patterns, and pull together seemingly unrelated events that comprise the tangible form of what we knew in our heart would happen the entire time. Hold on to your well grounded expectations.
