And Love Them Where They Are
There are many people I love and care about.
And sometimes, I don’t appreciate their choices because they’re detrimental to their lives, futures, or health, but all I can do is share my feelings, let go, and live my life to the best of my ability to model a better path.
As hard as it may be, you must give others the space to be who they are and love them where they are.
Maybe they will change, or maybe they won’t. That’s the whole idea of loving and letting go. Everyone is meant to follow their path. We can only observe.
If someone in your life has been hurting you by their choices, communicate it, and then let go. Take it a step further by making healthy choices so they can witness another option if they ever decide to choose it.
