Relationships are an exchange.
You do know this, yes?
A couple of days ago I talked about anger being a submissive position, not in charge, not present. Childish.
So to is needing to be liked. You will do crazy things in the name of not wanting to annoy people, wanting to be accepted (even if you are not behaving honestly).
We live now in a world of polarising positions that people will adopt so they are accepted in polite society.
Why, oh why, do you want to be accepted by people who hate what you really want to say?
The point of life is not to be liked. Most people are unthinking.
The point of life is to be good. Are you brave enough to stand above the crowd and speak the truth?
