Summary

This quote alludes to the notion that certain things that are deemed significantâ€”such as heartfelt conversations or grand plansâ€”are often discussed during casual or relaxed social settings, like cocktail hours. However, despite their perceived importance, these discussions rarely materialize into actual actions or tangible results. It implies that people may talk a good game, but fail to follow through on their words when it comes to taking meaningful actions. Therefore, it highlights the difference between intentions or ideas expressed in a casual environment and the actual execution of those ideas in reality.

In life there is reality and there is what you want in life. If you took a moment to step back and forget about everything that is going on that doesn't really mean that much anyway, you might be able to figure out how to get what you want and what has been stopping you. For every problem there is a solution, for every... need God has provided the answer, and for every want there is a way. Reality is what you make it.
