Expectations and Disappointment

There’s a reason why humanity works so hard. We can push ourselves to write a 10 page paper in a matter of just 7 hours or practice tennis diligently for years. But all the blood, sweat, and tears are worth the trouble- I honestly do. Humans have dreams and expectations. When I think about “Memory of Water,” all I can think is “Oh poor Noria.” My sweet tea master what has the world done to you?! She tries so hard to discover the truth behind the silver discs to find some understanding about the Twilight Century. Then she forms an elaborate getaway plan with Sanja in search of the possibility of hidden waters. But she is left with nothing; her expectations change into disappointment. The power that water has! Water has given her life, and sustained her until there is no more left. “The tea ceremony is over when there is no more water.”
