“Expectation is the root of all heartache.” No, we did not invent that quote. That was a famous line attributed by many – including social media habitues – to the famous English playwright William Shakespeare. It appears that this famous quotation triggers “aha!” moments for many. It reveals to them the reason for our many disappointments and the heartaches that come with them. We mentioned this quote in reference to our column last week about “disappointments.” This supposed Shakespearean quotation adequately captures the reason for them. We had “expectations” – a lot of them – regarding the pandemic, the virus, the vaccine and the many social and economic repercussion of the measures we took to survive the past one year or so.
