You are a cement pillar. I cannot change you. You refuse to change yourself. I must work around you, move on or resign myself to beating my head against you. This is my mantra.
Funny how life is filled with cement pillars. These cement pillars take the shapes of people, relationships, jobs, events and other such road blocks. If you keep beating on the cement pillar it won't change...it will just collapse and crumble. I need to change my perception of cement pillars and find a way to make them work with what I am trying to accomplish or move on with my life.
I don't know if I can fit you in with what I am trying to do... I don't know what I am trying to do yet. So you will stay this cumbersome cement pillar in my backyard as I make my plans. One day soon I will figure it out and find a way to work around you or just move on out of this position.
This pillar issue is a recurring theme in this past year. I see this theme popping up in the lives of my sisters and friends. Thank goodness for moms and solid advice.
