I feel in a relationship, if you love someone, that is the person you would want to spend the majority of your time with DOING things together, not simply taking the lead alone. Obviously, it takes a special mind set to accomplish not wanting to project what will make us happy
It is OK to have an idea of what you WANT and envision yourself having it someday. You also have to live in the present and have gratitude for what is already good in your life and what you have become. My belief is that the art of being happy is being flexible with those wants as life leads us on our winding path.
Seeking it out may have to do with exercising the toxic people, trusting your instincts when you come to a crossroad. It may not always be the easy path, but envisioning what you want helps you make the choices. We don’t know what will make us happy someday, that is why we must seek what works for us now.
It’s important to also know what we want. And to know what we want, we have to know ourselves well. We spend so much time making lists of what we want in a mate, that we don’t have time to learn who WE are. It’s my view that if we really learn about ourselves, our goals and tastes and values and interests, that we’ll just attract someone who fits well with us.
