Expect Good

People always talk of how they have many facets to their personality. Each different, catered to specific persons.

Now, I suddenly see the power these people possess. If we choose to see good and expect good in others, will it cause them to respond by showing us their good sides? Giving us what we expect and want? Perhaps thats a way to create more good in this world. The power isn't in the shape shifting, it lies in the catalyst to the shape shifting. It lies in us and what we expect of this world and other people.

So, perhaps its time to subtly add positives to our expectations of people. When they give us what we expect, a little bit more good would have materialized in them. Hopefully anyway...

maybe. but then people don't always give us what they want. maybe they don't even know what we want?

People unconsciously give others what is expect of them. Expect and Want is different. I'm talking about the sides we show to other people, and how those people control to a certain extent what we choose to potray. Not about what we want from others.
