About This Quote
You cannot change anyone, but you can be the reason someone changes. There are some people that are stuck in a pattern of hurting themselves and others. They don’t want to change and they will not change. It just seems like they have this pattern that makes them behave the way they behave.
There is something about them that is broken and they just don’t know how to fix it. The only way we can fix everyone is if we take their hand and help them to see the truth. We may not be able to change them, but we can be the reason they do change for themselves.
