I've learned a lot about the people this world.
Some are fun loving, some are pessimistic, others are productive, and others live to be lazy. I've met all sorts of people, and I've realized that every person has all of these traits, whether or not they want to admit it or realize it.
Most people choose their "best" and project it, and in the end it usually works out. Others, it does not always work out as well. I wish there was a guideline or a template of what an "ideal" personality was like, but I suppose that is not the case.
I know that there are people like me, who want to change the ways and mindsets of other people. As much as I try to think rationally about and attempt to ignore the qualities I don't care for, it is impossible, and I'm sure others would agree. This reason alone causes people to dispute and argue and is even the cause of wars.
But what do you do when a person you care about chooses a path that is against your philosophy? Maybe you saw it coming, maybe you didn't. Maybe you changed your philosophy multiple times and they followed suit, only to decide on something different from yours. I would love to agree to disagree, but what if that aspect of the respective philosophy's plays a leading role in the lives of the people? Then what?
You move forward. You realize that times have changed. And you move along. Or, you come to grips with it, and deal. And you realize that the relationship with the friend, significant, family member will either remain static, or will fade.
