If you will please people, you must please them in their own way; and as you cannot make them what they should be, you must take them as they are. ~ Lord Chesterfield
We don’t please people by relying on them,
making their life easier, living for that person,
facilitating their needs, smoothing their path.
That’s codependence, not really accepting them,
but seeking to improve them.
Don’t change who you are to try to improve them.
Accept them as they are, love them,
make room for them to grow,
to be who they can be.
Take them as they are.
making their life easier, living for that person,
facilitating their needs, smoothing their path.
That’s codependence, not really accepting them,
but seeking to improve them.
Don’t change who you are to try to improve them.
Accept them as they are, love them,
make room for them to grow,
to be who they can be.
Take them as they are.
