Perhaps the reason people are often discontented is because we don’t choose the people we have, and we don’t love the people we don’t choose. But if we accept that the people we have are in fact the people we’re gonna have, then maybe we will learn sooner to love them, because it’s a little silly to love the people we don’t have, and who don’t choose us. And it’s even sillier not to love the people we already have, and who look to us for love. And if we can be a conduit for an even bigger love than ourselves, so much the better.
