Yes, except that expectations often blind us to reality (and I mean outside of going to the theatre, re: Halx's response). People can easily become chained to their expectations and forget to look at the world without their self-imposed filters.

I think that is the point of the article: it's learning to look for what you are not seeing or looking beyond your expectations (self-interests, self-motivations, self-interpretations, self-imposed filters) that is the key. Finding pleasure and meaning in the unexpected and in serendipity.
