You know how they say that the qualities that drive you crazy most in other people are often qualities you yourself possess? Well, I had a conversation today that is a prime example of this. Someone I know was complaining to me that certain people never thank her or appreciate her for what she does for them. This is the conversation we had in my head:
Her: It's just irritating that I do so much for them and they don't even seem to notice.
Me: Ah, like when you don't notice how much I do for you!
Her: I just don't see the point of doing all this work when it's not bringing me joy in life and they're not even appreciating all my work.
Me: Like you.
Her: They have no clue how hard I work for them.
Me: Like you.
This probably means that I don't appreciate people for all the hard work they do in my behalf and that I never say thank you, doesn't it? It's a vicious circle.
