VIVA LA RESISTANCE
[Psychology]
September 30, 2024
One day, I asked my wisest grandmother: "What should I do if I love someone?.." She answered without hesitation: "Leave him alone..." I immediately asked the opposite question: "What should I do if I don't love?.." She answered the same: "Leave him alone!..." Seeing my puzzled face, my grandmother explained: "That is the most honest way: you shouldn't torment either the loved or the hated person. If your love is mutual – everything will be fine! If not – there will be nothing. And remember: even in happy relationships, you should leave the person alone as often as possible... the longer they will remain happy!" Many years later, after diving into a sea of practice, I understood that my grandmother's advice was worth many volumes of relationship psychology books. It always works.
