“Some things will never change”…….
Sometimes saying this sounds so negative. Usually when we utter these words, it is in pure disappointment. We never truly wish positive situations to change, but we hope and pray that negative situations do.
Sometimes, there are situations in which in order for them to change that would require the efforts of another individual. Just by bringing that individual in the equation there is a 50/50 chance that you will either fail or succeed……
I thought things would get better with time. I thought that some things would change…. I prayed that some things would change…….. I wishes and cried and hoped that some things would change….but you know what…. They didn’t. No matter how much I wanted the situation to be different, it did not matter because it involved more than just me.
Sometimes we are so hard on ourselves. We cast the blame fully on us. We get on our knees and look to the sky and say “Why me?”……….but why? …. Do we not realize that although in some situations we are fully to blame, in others we are only partly? For example, it is like a race in which you have to tag the other person to start running. If you are ahead of the competition and then you tap your partners hand and he or she refuses to finish the race and you come in dead last, is it your fault that you lost? It may be partly your fault, but the blame is moreso on the other person because they didn’t even try.
Some things will never change………….I said how I felt, I showed how I wanted to be treated….I really did try…….but my effort was cancelled out by the lack of effort on the other person’s part. In order for change to occur, positive forces must interact. Change is cancelled out when a positive and a negative force collide…I realize this…. And despite how unhappy it makes me, I just have to realize that some things never change……
I thought things would get better with time. I thought that some things would change…. I prayed that some things would change…….. I wishes and cried and hoped that some things would change….but you know what…. They didn’t. No matter how much I wanted the situation to be different, it did not matter because it involved more than just me…..and I can’t force others to change………
Just something to think about…. Have a great day.
