"Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth."  Proverbs 27:1 You were waiting for this big event. It was going to change your life . Counting down to the big day was like watching paint dry. The moment you’d been waiting for finally arrived. But wait…it wasn't so special after all. What happened?

You waited for your wedding day and when it finally arrived, you soon discovered that weddings come with marriages attached. Marriages are a work of heart. You waited to have a baby and then you finally gave birth to the most demanding little boss you’ve ever met. Parenting is a work of heart. You expected more of that person, but they disappointed you. Relationships are a workout for the heart. Expectations magnify events to epic proportions. No wonder they fail to please
