You can't push a rope

Our lives are a complex matrix of relationships and interactions.  And each one is its own two-way street.  I'm coming to the same realization (for about the 816th time) that -

No matter how good your intention, some people won't accept help.
No matter how much you try, some people won't meet you halfway.

As my dad would say, you can't push a rope.

So I'm trying something different this time.  I'm trying to embrace letting go.  I can't solve everything - even if I believe I'm equipped to do so.  I won't be able to make everyone see things from the same perspective.  And some things aren't actually meant to be at all.
