You may feel disheartened about your relationships today. You could be feeling saddened that your expectations are not being met or feel disappointed in the actions of another. One good way to overcome these feelings is to consciously release your expectations of others. Rather than trying to change the behavior of others, you can simply focus on loving them for who they are and provide yourself with the qualities you sought from them. You might consider thinking about the type of people you like and respect, and then work on integrating those qualities within yourself. If you also spend time treating yourself kindly and making yourself feel loved and cherished today, you will find that you are less concerned with the actions of others.

By releasing our expectations for our relationships, we give them room to grow in wonderful and surprising ways. We often feel the need to control the direction of our relationships by placing expectations on our loved ones, but doing so can stunt the growth of our relationships. If we instead learn to let go and focus more on making ourselves feel loved and fulfilled, our happiness will direct more positive energy to our relationships. With a constant influx of beneficial energy, our relationships are then able to grow and evolve far beyond what we would have envisioned for them. If you release your expectations and instead focus on fulfilling yourself from within today, your relationships will be free to blossom and grow in the way they were intended.
