As the days go by here in the desert, I've learned that the only way to keep your chin up is if you have no expectations. It is a most liberating experience when you are able to live life with an attitude of no expectations. When you have expectations, you have preconceived ideas of how things should be that you are attached to. Expectation creates fear because you think what you desire may or may not happen. Free of expectations, you can just go with the flow of the universe and not be affected by the outcomes that you encounter...
I don't expect people to mail me, and when they don't, I'm not disappointed. I don't expect the food here to be good, and when my steak is dry, I'm not disappointed. I don't expect to get 6 hours of sleep at night, and when I only get 5, I'm not disappointed.
No expectations = no disappointments.
and then when you DO get mail its even better
