ME before WE

'The higher your structure is to be, the deeper must be its foundation."
-Saint Augustine

People lean onto others for support. But when this 'leaning' turns into a parasitic dependence, that's when it becomes mutually unhealthy. It drains the lifeblood out of both individuals, leading to a not so happy ending. This usually happens when people look to others for support. Entirely. First it's only support and strength and then it turns out that how you feel depends completely on how the other person feels. Angry, frustrated, happy or upset. Pretty soon it ends with blaming the other for being down. Things then go pretty awry in the blink of an eye.

Don't fret, all hope isn't lost. Instead of turning to the other person for everything, take the time to build yourself. Map out your goals and targets. Plan out the action to get to where you want to be. Commit 100% to your career, goals, on being a better individual.  Do the Me before the WE. You gotta learn to be strong. Get the foundation to run deep and strong and you'll build yourself a tower that's got no limits. 

It's the journey to the destination that makes you strong, not the destination itself. Along the way, you'll meet a person who's just as hungry for their goals as you are. Instead of looking for the perfect partner, make yourself into what you want your other half to be. Then your relationship will thrive, and both of you will be able to maintain a healthy relationship with mutual support, trust, respect and love. Two identical halves make a perfect whole.

P.S : I don't mean to be negative in any way. I was surfing the web (as always) and happened to come across a related post. I'm only just expressing my opinion here. These things you see, are better expressed to an anonymous audience than to a familiar crowd. Also, sometimes, I don't even know the point of writing all these stuff anyway. (Haha)
