About This Quote

The primary cause of disorder in ourselves is the seeking of reality promised by another. The words “the seeking of reality” means that you are looking for something that is not real. People promise things to us that they never deliver. They tell us that they will be there for us, but they are really looking to be there for themselves. You need to realize that people are not always there to help you out, so don’t expect them to.
