"爱是这样的一种能力和意愿:让你关心的人选择他们自己想要的生活,而不要求他们必须让你满意。"

Wayne Dyer

Simplified Meaning:

Loving someone means letting them be their true selves without trying to change them to meet your own needs or expectations. Imagine you have a friend who loves painting, but you prefer sports. True love would mean supporting their passion for painting, even if it's not something you're interested in. This way, your friend feels valued and free to pursue what makes them happy. A historical example could be Mahatma Gandhi's wife, Kasturba, who supported his path even when it was hard. She didn't try to change his mission but stood by him. In your own life, you can practice this by being supportive when your loved ones make choices that are right for them, even if they are different from what you would have liked. This approach helps build trust and respect in relationships, making them stronger and more fulfilling.
