Don’t understand

[thatjuanguy]

Why do I watch so many people throw away and ruin the only thing I want yet when I put my effort in it never works for me but these people have it and it’s never enough for them they always want more or something else but why when it’s right in front of them and they have a real chance they just don’t seem to care. I just don’t get it but it must make sense to them.

Everyone is on a journey. The ups and the downs are all part of the route. There is no right or wrong way, the road they take is meant for them. You can watch them progress, but their journey is not about you. We may not understand parts of the process, and we can’t until the entire story is written. The important part is that this story never ends. Each of our journeys is but one line, in one paragraph, on one page, of one chapter...

I spent too much time asking why. The answer is “don’t know”. I can make up a story about why, but it will be a story from a single perspective.

Why did someone do something? He/she/they wanted to. Simple as that. There are countless reasons and combinations of reasons behind that want, so we will never find the actual reason why.

You’re right but after 29 years I know him pretty well. He has had these sudden bursts of anger because maybe he had a bad day at work. But I should call BS on him because why take it out on me?

Part of living in emotional control is knowing if and when to pick your battles.

We’re not arguers. But if feelings are hurt then it should be discussed.

Acceptance is the key.
