In The Dark - Dj Tiesto
I've learned that a lot of times, when people around you are telling you about their problems and dilemma, we would try and understand their problems and their situation as well. We, as good friends, would put ourselves in their shoes and imagine how we are going to face the problem when we are in the same situation. What results from this is suggestions and best advices in dealing with the problems. And most of the time, we would expect the friends to heed the advice and act according to what we, as their good friends, have suggested. But, we should also understand that, it might only be our suggestions based on our understanding of the situation, and that we're not in the real situation itself. How much can we understand just by listening to what is being told? We can say what we can, advice all we can, order them all our might, but, in the end, the decision is still in their hand. They are the one that truly understand the matter and the feelings in their heart. We, in the end, are only bystanders, and even if we have gone through the same problems, we might have dealt with the situation differently with other circumstances that were occurring during that time. We might not know whether the same method will work twice, or on a different person's situation with different circumstances that comes into consideration. But, the one thing that we, as the good friends is able to do other than giving advices and solutions, is being there for them when they need it the most. This, after all, gives much more comfort to them. I, for one, like what was once written in my display tag: I'll be everyone's confidante, and none will be mine.
