Real change will come when you focus on yourself - not on changing him, Real change comes when you are willing and able to state your claim on what you are and are not willing to live with. Just remember to let him in on it

About This Quote

When I was in high school, I had a friend whom I truly admired. She was so confident and full of energy. She always spoke her mind and never held anything back. She decided to change schools after she finished grade 11.

When I found out about the move, I felt like she was abandoning me. I was heartbroken at the thought of not seeing my friend every day. It was then that I realized that the only way to be happy is if I made my own decisions.

If she changed schools, it was because she wanted to live the life she wanted to live and no one else could stop her. If I wanted to continue our friendship, it would be up to me to make the necessary changes in my life so that we could be together again.
