Something I've had to keep telling myself lately is that all you can do is all you can do. We can help our loved ones and others around us to a point, but ultimately as was said, we can't live their lives for them. We all have our own trials to face and weaknesses to overcome and ways in which we need to grow, and what good does it do someone else for us to take that away from them? Suppressing another's agency with our own is exactly <i>not</i> why we came here.

I totally get what you're saying. Wow…I’ve been trying to work on similar things in my own life the last couple of days, and here you are posting about it and using my song.
