Tendency to feel
Tendency to feel unnecessarily guilty is something we all suffer from, at least a little, from time to time. Don't let it influence your appraisal of a key situation. We would only be bad if we were to think of ourselves as something other than good.Some people and situations seemingly require us to go the extra mile. They take us out of our comfort zones. They plunge us into quagmires of quandary or oblige us to climb mountains of misunderstanding until we stand shivering at their summits, clinging for dear life as ever icier winds of confusion howl about our ears.
You could have avoided much recent drama and tension by picking a seemingly easier route through life's jungle. Do the people who have the strongest personalities inevitably end up being the ones who get what they want? That depends on what we mean by 'strongest' and there is another implication to be questioned here. Is 'to get what you want' really quite as desirable an outcome as it may superficially sound?
What if you really don't know what you want? Or you do, but it turns out that you are wanting the wrong thing for the wrong reason. How much good is that going to do you?Are they somehow linked like weights on an invisible seesaw, so that as one goes up, the other cannot help but go down?
