Why does a woman work ten years to change a man's habits and

Summary

This quote highlights the irony in a common phenomenon where a woman invests significant time and effort in trying to change her partner's habits or behavior, only to end up dissatisfied when he no longer resembles the person she initially fell in love with. The quote prompts reflection on the unrealistic expectations and potential futility in seeking to fundamentally alter someone's nature, suggesting that it may be more effective to accept and appreciate one's partner for who they are, rather than attempting to mold them into someone they are not.

To see life from the perspective of intuition is to have vision. To see life from the perspective of intuition is to see life from the perspective of wholeness. It is to understand that life is basically one and that we are part of life. While the intellect can only see the details, intuition sees the whole. To see life from the perspective of intuition is like looking at life from the summit of the mountain, whereas seeing life only from the perspective of intellect is like looking at life from the foot of the mountain. Through learning to listen to our intuition, we learn to be in contact with the Whole.
