Why do we send out so much poison in our lives? Why can't we just be nice? Are we afraid that people will do things for us only if we make them?
But what is the outcome of something achieved under such means?
At the very best, all we can accomplish is a "one timer", not something that will endure in time.
We can't make people do for us, or behave towards us, the way we believe they should; It is a pointless waste of our time to withhold thanks or to act cold and disappointed when - say - whoever we believed should have called earlier, finally calls.
Much better to appreciate what we are being offered in the knowledge that if there's more to come we will embrace it, otherwise we would be just fine.
It is possible to apply this formula to any situation, all that is required is the understanding that - ultimately - we move through life spending every single second of it only in our own company, we might as well become our best friend then, don't you think?
