The clash of expectations
When they’re not your own
Tests your limitations
“Isn’t it already shown?
Must I listen to interpretations?”
Opinions can be expressed
Though it’s a tribute to share
Some may need to be repressed
As an alternate way to care
For nobody wants disbeliefs pressed
Regard your lack of control
Respect the adventure others take
There’s a limit to how much you can dole
For it’s still their journey to make
On their own, they will become whole

We must all make our own way, and allow others the same opportunity… like your words Astrid… 🙂

Sometimes it is best to let others go on their own way. Yes respect their adventures and suppor the choices they make as friends or relatives. In the end, they may thank you for the space.

Nice last line reminding us that they can and will become whole on their own.
