Seeking Approval | Juwon Ogungbe
Jan 31, 2021
What are the benefits of living up to the expectations of others? Approval is intangible and of hardly any use when a person feels unfulfilled.
Disapproval is also unquantifiable. What is there to lose? In some cases, co-dependency might be the underlying issue that needs to be addressed.
Paths might have crossed, to enable a chain of events to happen. Who knows when a relationship has served its purpose?
One can look back at times spent with others, without placing any value judgements on the way things turn out later.
Sustaining friendships gives me pleasure, but I’ve seen enough now to know when to let things be.
