Give and Take

Dear fellow readers,

Sorry for a long wait D:
But thank you for your loyalty in regularly checking this place.

things have changed these days, but there's one thing that stands out:

"When you learn to like the person beyond what you dislike about the person, that's when you really learn how to see people in a better light"

Thinking about it, all of us have our flaws: I am probably too noisy (shout out too much and too fast without thinking), too crass or unrefined, too boastful and show off, too proud, too domineering in groups...

But learning to see my traits - I shan't put it down, for it is for you to judge what areas I am good at - would help shape your appreciation for me. Similarly, I am trying to do the same thing to others. By learning to look beyond the dislikes, you are cutting down dissent and making your relationship with the person much more blissful.

of course one must still know where is the fine line between acceptance and a need for change. We should not change who we are to fit others whim and fancy, but we shouldn't also be obstinate just to have our means all the time. It is all about give-and-take, and this is what makes strong relationships... strong!

I am sure I have typed this before, but this feeling just seems to keep replaying itself so many times I shall probably refresh my (and your) memory of it.
