You can lead a horse to water, but you can't force him or her to drink

There are many times that I'm frustrated by peoples actions. I'm frustrated when I see them doing something that's wrong in my opinion and if they just did what I believe is right then all their problems would go away. I'm not always right though, as much as I want to be. We can lead the horse to water, but we can't force them to drink as much as we would just love to shove them in the well. Who's to say that I'm right? I'm basing what I think on my life experience. Even if I am right, that person has to make that decision for themselves. They can't do it just because I said it; then they're not doing it for themselves. This could cause resentment against me for making that decision. Each of us is on our own journey. We all have our own process and speed for our lives. I find that if I make little changes in my life, I'm good... but if I'm given too much to handle, I'll run as fast and as far as I can. I'm keeping this in mind when dealing with others. They may feel the same way as me. There may be a deeper reason that I don't know about as to why they won't take that next step. Everybody's got a story, who am I to say how that story is to be written?
