happiness = life - expectations
really? when i think about it, yeah, that makes sense. if i didn't have expectations i know i'd be happier. but we have expectations for a reason... our life experiences have led us to expect things, our values, our goals in life.. and i think all of that is a part of who we are, if not all that we are.
sigh.

i feel like that's the same as ignorance is bliss. maybe, but how can you know it's blissful without something to compare it to? and how can you have happiness without hope/expectations? i think it's more about knowing the reality that not all expectations turn out to be true, but enough do to keep you hoping. something like that? :)
