Ok people, listen up
Stop trying to figure things and other people out. One of the hardest lessons in life is to know that you are not going to understand everything. Think about it though. What normally happens when you can't figure something out? It consumes you. The questions run rampant. You can't sleep. You can't concentrate. Because it is all you can think about, it is all you talk about. Mainly all you know is that you just don't understand. Now tell me this, where does that get you? That's right, lack of sleep, concentration, and probably an upset tummy followed by a headache. Does it change what happened? Does person in question change? Does this person even know or care about the havoc they have caused?
Sorry folks but the answer is, no.
Do you know the line, "Don't cry over someone that won't cry over you"? It's the same thing really. Hopefully you have learned that you can't change people. And why would you want to? You want to be accepted and loved for who you are. You need to do the same in return. But you also need to realize that this person isn't you. They will do things that you may not approve of or you may disagree with. Trust me though; they will be the same way with you. You will do things that they don't like also.
So, it usually gives you one of two endings. 1) They have ended it and walked away. It is sad sometimes, but you can't change it. And what good is going to do for you to cry over it? Are they? Will it bring them back? Will it make them feel bad? No. Sorry, time to move on. One deep breathe and let it go. 2) You have to make the decision. This part of them that you don't like, is it worth walking away? Or can you live with it because you won't be able to change it. It is what it is and who they are. Take it or leave it.
Am I making any sense here? The short and sweet of it is that you can't change this person or what happened. It's done. Why make yourself sick from it? It is much easier to accept it and move on. You will also be a much happier person. Trust me.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. The courage to change the things I can. And the wisdom to know the difference.
Life is much more fun if you can sit back and enjoy its idiosyncrasies. Understand that you won't and don't have to understand it all.
