Sometimes one cuts others off because they don’t want to be where they are. An uncle of a close friend grew up in the Plains states. He just always wanted to get away. In mid-teens he left. Forty to fifty years later he returned.
A wealthy financier with a chateau on a major lake in Switzerland.
That is the exception. Most have no idea what they want or where they want to be.
Cutting off people is a major mistake. Like it or not , we are all in this together. Sigh! We are not cutting them off as much as we are limiting ourselves. Forget the Yogi, Guru, or something like that, who kept a slave, who was rude, insolent, stubborn and who he treated as he would have liked to have been treated if their places were reversed. He did so because he said no one else would train him in kindness, patience, and perseverance as well or allow him to develop as far as he could. Just a thought.
