What I think it means is that most parents will walk throw fire for their children. Esp a mother. That's why the ball players..look at the camera..and say ..'HI MOM'. I had sorry parents. But most people have parents..who they can trust..esp in comparison to non family members. Not saying most are easy to love...this system is set up to cause stress and failure. But most do the best they can. I know I did..even though trama from childhood..affected my parenting skills...and a bad marriage...i always told my children..i will be there for them. It is sometimes hard to love..on both sides..but no one asks to be born. Everyone just have to play the cards..that life deals...

betrayal never comes from your enemies? i....HALF-agree with that. ever heard of fake people? they pretend to be your friend until their done using you.

[@mtngrl5859]

Yes, but they can't truly betray you. Betrayal comes through those who are closest to you, that you trust. Typically an enemy is not close to you. Problem is in today's culture is that many people fail to understand the difference btw acquaintances and friends. If one thinks they have over 10 friends, they don't know the difference.

[@Red-vn4xq]

10? If one has 3 true friends they have many. There are many that believe some are friends and it's the exact opposite, narcissist are examples. Some have PTSD and have no choice but to except them as friendships. They keep trying to get their exceptance their entire lives even though they know how they are towards them.

[@mtngrl5859]

@@Red-vn4xq Well, there is a difference btw "True friends" and "friends". I have a number of people in my life that I'm their "best friend" and they aren't my "best friend". They can always count on me, but they aren't as reliable but they are still "friends", I just know who I can count on. Then there are people I'm friendly with and if I had a party, they'd be invited to, but I wouldn't share anything of true importance with. It's a friendship circle. If one has a business, one learns to cultivate many different types of relationships. I remember at my 21st birthday party, I had 300 people who came to my party. I actually "knew" all of these people, but they weren't "dear friends" but enough to be invited to a party.

[@Red-vn4xq]

​@@mtngrl5859I understand what you're saying. Acquaintances is a term for friendly interaction in general. Saying is one thing, action is another. Action is the only truth in this World. Therefore saying one thing and doing another. Decievers say one thing and do another. Don't do as they do is best observation. Anyways, have a great day

[@mtngrl5859]

@@Red-vn4xq Thanks for your reply. My main point is that in the previous generations most people understood that there was a certain designations on the concept of friendship. So, there were people one would have different levels of intimacy. In today's world, the concept of acquaintances is not understood, often people think that people they work with are "friends". Typically if one leaves a particular position, the "friendship" after a period of time will fade away. The common interest-the shared working environment- no longer exists.

Years ago, I put together my Readers Digest quote, just in case: When I was fifteen, I looked forward to sixteen, the year I'd be old enough to drive. It was wisdom I sought. Upon arriving at my sixteenth year, I was sorely disappointed to discover wisdom was not yet mine. Not undaunted, I again looked ahead. This time, to my eighteenth birthday. The age at which I could be called to defend my country and give my all, as a man. Surely that was when wisdom would be mine. Again, I met disappointment. But I held firmly to that I had merely been mistaken on the timing when wisdom would be mine. I, reasonably, chose twenty-one. After all, in law, and other ways, it was said that was the age at which I'd reached maturity, and I'd be established as an adult. Sadly, I came to be twenty-one and, was, yet again, sorely disappointed. In desperation, I came to rest my hopes on the age of twenty-four. The age at which my insurance rates dropped. Suffice it to say, I've reached my final conclusion: There are many eighty year old kids running around this world today. Kelly Craig

Many great lessons. Personnally I strongly disagree with "forgiving = healing." Forgiving is atroceously overrated in our cultures and we need to relearn that not-forgiving and accepting that others might not want to forgive those who hurt them is often important. By expecting others to forgive, we involontarily blame people for the hurt that was done to them or make them responsible for the consequences of what they were victim of. Think of disrespect, condescension and insults. Having someone disrespect you or talk to you with condescension can be exhausting and can strongly alter your behaviour, even more so when the perpetrator does it on purpose. At family gatherings for example, if you allow someone to be an asshole to another person and expect the other to "understand" to "cope with it" you allow an asshole to feel comfortable and happy and to steal happiness from his victim. And at the same time, the target will grow resentful, distant and susceptible and will be judge by everybody according to his attitude. The victim is deprived of being considered carefree, enthusiastic, positive etc... people will perceive them as withdrawn and moody, when the reason why they are that way is right in front of everybody's eyes. So, forgiveness... no. Forgiveness as opposed to revenge, ok, but not as a synonym of "shut up and cope" and certainly not as the main road to "healing." Absolutely not. The biggest part of healing is having everybody acknowledge what happened to you, who did it to you, and why. What heals the most is the victory of truth.

Perhaps u needed a different job that wud make u mature differently n where u r right now is providing the necessary experience needed.

The one lesson "every person has 3 faces, one you show the world, one you show to close people, and one only to yourself".
