This is quite a cliché phrase, and is often said in a
negative context!
But I am using it differently: It is worth
acknowledging that, at the end of the day, we all must provide for ourselves!
We all have our own dreams, goals, aspirations,
families, close friends, and significant others; and we all want the same
fundamental things.
There are those you can trust, of course, but the best
way to keep yourself rooted and at ease is to know that each and every person
has his or her own agenda.
You cannot control others. You cannot expect them to
put you before themselves. And
trying to do so may work for a period of time, but eventually, the truth will
rise to the surface.
Instead, make it a point to address and help others
move toward their own dreams, as you request their help in moving toward yours.
The relationship will more smoothly move in the right
direction this way.
