I do nothing to change the status quo. Of course I wish the other would changeโฆ maybe they should start showing more respect, love, adulation, appreciation; but it is always about them needing to change rather than meโฆ. Because hey I am the nice one who is always wronged.
So like a fairy tale, the others will miraculously change and I will be rescued is the belief.
This is infantile, this is crazy, this robs us of our own greatness and makes us weaker than ever- subservient to our stories, tethered to external validation.
