If it is true that we get just what we expect,
And that to expect is to create what we want,
Then it stands that we design our own fear as well
The ghosts and the terrors that haunt.
If we choose to meet life timidly,
Peering out through a veil of distrust,
Then by pure definition we are choosing as well
The disappointments we decry as unjust.

Be careful about expectations;
Be mindful of what you create;
For thoughts are inventive, intangible things
Bringing forth their tangible mates.

If it is true we are part of the creator,
Then it follows we're creative as well.
And the mind that can dream there is heaven,
Must certainly fear there is hell.
So, if it's true that we get just what we expect,
And that to expect is to create what we want,
Then it stands that we design our whole lives as well,
Creating both the fear and the joy that haunts.

Be careful about expectations;
Be mindful of what you create;
For thoughts are inventive, intangible things
Bringing forth their tangible mates.
