i was just thinking... ... ... ... ...
we often think: "if he'll change, my life will be so much easier and happier"
but first, can you change yourself?
can you give up your favourite food from today on?
can you kick your bad habit?
can you not complain about every little thing?
can you not show your temper from now on?
can you stop being so conceited?
can you be true to your feelings?
see? even changing yourself is almost mission impossible.
what makes you think someone else can do it?
we often grumble:
"if it isn't for him, i wouldn't be like that ok?!"
"if he treats me better, i'd treat him better too!"
so, why don't YOU be nice to him first?
in an exchange, both goods have to be of equal value at least.
love for love
gratitude for gratitude
passion for passion
honesty for honesty
And we can only exchange change for change
Change yourself, make him happy.
He's happy, he'll want to change to show he appreciates you.
if you've changed and he shows no remorse, you haven't really lost much.
but in turn, you've kicked your bad habits.
don't you think you're in a better position to find someone better?
then, he'll instantly want to improve his chances to keep you by his side...
by changing for the better...
change is part and parcel of life
what matters most is why, how and what you change.
for whom you change, is not of importance.
at the end of the day, you benefit from it all...
that's what i tell myself.
