# Wanting It **Published by:** [jer979](https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/) **Published on:** 2025-04-23 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/wanting-it ## Content There are times when you want something for yourself. Then, there are times when you want something for someone else. But, as a good friend said to me, “you can’t want something more than the person who is supposed to want it the most.” It can be frustrating when we feel others don’t see just how ripe a situation is for possibility and opportunity. But we can’t force it. And hurt though it may, at a certain point, it’s time to let go. The flip side is that we should use these moments to remind ourselves that sometimes others see things for us that would be really advantageous…but we need to listen with a truly open mind. I know I’m guilty of that. ## Publication Information - [jer979](https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@jer979-2): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/jer979): Follow on Twitter
