Difference between Expectation and Acceptance

The word expectation comes from the Latin word expectationem, meaning "an awaiting." If you have great expectations, you think something good will come your way, but if keep your expectations low, you won’t risk being disappointed.

Every person has a different perspective of life. They grow in different environments. The thought process of people is always different from one person to the other person.

so, why we think that other people would have the same opinion as we have? So the answer is that we expected from them, we think others will also have the same thought.

why we hurt?

when people explain their different opinion, we don’t agree with their perspectives as we were expected from them. when people don’t come true according to our expectation we hurt.

Acceptance means agreeing with or taking on a belief.

when we admit that every person has a different perspective, their living standard is different, they grow up in the different environment, they have a different family background, they face many other troubles that you did not face, every person facing problems and passing out many traumas, we don’t know about their life, by understanding all these aspects we will not feel disheartened.

we just have to accept the point of view and aspects of other people, life becomes easy.

so, in short, I will say that never expect from anyone. Always accept the things that happen. Every person has a different point of view.
