Assume Nothing

Have you ever experience a situation where in your phone beeped and you're expecting it might be someone replying to your message or a very good news or someone you badly missed sent you a text, only to find out it came from your network service provider? I am always a victim of this situation, where in I am very much excited that someone is sending me a message and when I open it, it's just a crappy message from my provider. I just had it earlier, I was eating and then my phone beeped, and I was happy that someone remembered me but I just got frustrated seeing the usual number of my provider. Another lesson learned for me, never ever expect something, so that it will never be that painful and frustrating. Assume nothing and wait for something to come. We'll there's nothing wrong with being hopeful, we just need to be cautious.
