The surprise gift

Yesterday when I went to a shopping mall , the cash vendor told me that I had won a surprise gift.

The surprise gift was a huge box.

On seeing the huge box I was very excited I thought of all the things I wanted in my life and expected that it would be there in the box.

I opened the box slowly layer by layer.
As I opened it, it turned out to be smaller and smaller, my hopes and dreams diminishing with each layer.

Finally it was a very small piece of dairy milk chocolate.

Now ...

Should I be angry that the shopping mall cheated me and just stop shopping  ?


Should I blame myself for expecting too much and be happy to get a free dairy milk ?

Compare my gift with others who got an IPAD ?

Go shopping again expecting for more ?

Also , should the dairy milk be unhappy for being in the box and get a disappointed look ?
