About This Quote
I will not have you build me into your life when what I want is to build a life with you the difference. This quote means that we must give up our most cherished desires in order to make a life with each other. The idea of giving up something really dear in order to create a life together is a difficult one. After all, how can we give up something that we love? We may be willing to forgo something that we desire in order to share an even greater good.
And, when we do this, we find peace and happiness. It is really not so hard after all.
