A difficult thing for me is accepting that I am not responsible for anyone but myself. I can not "make" someone see things my way. I cannot force my thoughts and opinions upon others. As adults, we are all responsible for the decisions we make, the paths we choose.
I have made some very regrettable decisions in my life. I am responsible for them. I am responsible for trying to make things better. I cannot worry about what others are doing or thinking or how they are conducting themselves...because there is nothing that I can do to change that. I may feel sad about the choices and decisions that others make, but that's the most that I have a right to.
Learning to let go of that is a hard thing for me. But I am getting there, slowly. It's all part of the process.
