Are they talking to you?

 

Sometimes when people talk to you, they’re only really talking to themselves through you. They say it’s better for you to do this or that, but in their minds, it’s what they know they need to hear. Sometimes it’s okay to let them say whatever they need to say, even if it’s not what you‘ve been wanting to hear. Because, sometimes, that turns out to be the only time they get to hear themselves say those words. And often times, that’s just all they really need.
