The goal in life is to not try to change anybody else, but change yourself to a point where nobody else is the issue. The most beautiful relationship I've ever had is with my own mom and it's because she was always going to be my mom. And if I wanted a relationship with her, I had to accept that she was not going to go on a personal development program, or go to therapy, or get a life coach, or anything like that. She was going to always be her. And what I needed to change is when she said or acted in a way that triggered me to emotionally respond to her.
