So much better than demands.

I’m not a very demanding being. When it comes to other people. Really. In that I let them be themselves. Of course, I don’t hesitate to make suggestions. And give advice. But not in a demanding way. Occasionally, I’m misconstrued as demanding. When people jump to an erroneous conclusion. That a suggestion is a demand. I am in no position to make demands. Anyway, it goes against my grain. The best relationships are achieved in undemanding ways. When two people let each other be themselves. Mutual acceptance. So much better than demands. –Jim Broede
