If you are trying to force people to do something, they will resist. The more pressure, the more resistance.

But I cannot watch them making mistakes that can ruin their life… that’s the problem
Although, I know I cannot live their life instead of them either…
Thanks by the way:)

Their own personal truth. Why would anyone tell everything they have ever done? linuxya you have no secrets?

No secrets on my side either. Live what you say, say what you live.

I don’t understand why people ( I am ) are afraid of secrets. The more I talk to people the more I realize my secrets aren’t that surprising… or uncommon.. or anything worth hiding. You know? I kinda feel that people just like keeping things so they don’t feel that they give all of themselves away. It may be that many people who keep secrets feel insecure about exposing themselves because its like opening a box and showing everyone your treasure… bad analogy.

Being scared from the truth about yourself is ok. It is less ok lying to yourself and think that’s the truth.
