Simplified Meaning:
When a person doesn't have any expectations, they will never feel let down. Imagine you are hoping to get a big gift on your birthday. If you don't expect anything, anything you do get will be a nice surprise, and you won't feel upset if you get nothing. On the other hand, if you expect a big present and don't get it, you'll feel sad and disappointed. This idea can help in many parts of life, like friendships, work, and personal goals. By not expecting things to happen a certain way, you can enjoy whatever comes your way without feeling hurt. This mindset can lead to a happier and more peaceful life because you are open to whatever life brings without feeling let down.
