RE: THE ALCHEMY OF LOVING THE ONE WHO STAYED

Woah! That’s a long time ago!
I randomly picked that book to read and I’m really happy I did. It’s good to know you read it that number of times and from the look of things, I’ll be following your lead, hehe.

My favorite line from the book is “Real love is accepting other people the way they are, without trying to change them.”

I also like that part too. It changed something in me when I read it - the need to always try to make people be who I want them or who I think they should be. I’d rather just focus on making myself better instead and if they like how the better me is, they might on their own choose to change.

The book is one I will recommend to anyone and everyone especially for the fact that it isn’t long at all but very impactful.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me, Sam.
