About This Quote

When life doesn't meet your expectations, it was important to take it with grace. The great Maya Angelou said that when life doesn't meet your expectations, you should take it as a gift. This means that you should not blame the universe for not being what you expected. If you were expecting a certain experience and it didn't happen, then you should accept the fact that this isn't what you wanted and move on.

You can still have a wonderful time by making memories without thinking about the disappointment of your expectations. If your expectations weren't met, then maybe they weren't meant to be fulfilled.
