Quote by Henry Cloud

Summary

This quote suggests that while it is possible to have desires that might not materialize, when it comes to desiring a relationship, it is often a result of unresolved issues or personal growth that needs to take place. Instead of simply accepting that it is "not in the cards," the emphasis is put on working on oneself and addressing any problems that may be hindering the desired relationship. By doing so, the quote suggests that the chances of achieving that desire are significantly increased.
