it’s like I’m an apple tree and you want mangos. i’m giving you apples. apples are fruit as much as mangos are, but you want mangos. which is completely fine! i, personally, cannot give you mangos, because i’m an apple tree, not a mango tree. i think mangos are also nice and you have all the right to want them, and obviously i, as an apple tree, understand and accept my inability to produce mangos. could it happen? maybe, but that wouldn’t be natural, would it? how much would it cost for an apple tree to start producing mangos? also, apples are also fruit, so it’s okay to produce apples and not mangos. what is not okay is to look at an apple tree, know that it is an apple tree, get the apples it’s giving telling you it’s an apple and not a mango, acknowledge that it is, in fact, an apple and that it’s also a fruit, but then keep telling the apple tree you want mangos, and that the apple tree is fine producing apples, but still why is it not producing mangos? the apple tree says it’s fine for you to look for a mango tree! all fruits are equally valid! the tree is trying its best!!!
#analogy that came after a conversation with my brother#i love how he also added 'and trees also have illnesses right?'#and proceeds to say how when a tree doesnt have the right nutrients it doesnt produce the fruits or at least not as much#and that depression could be that#a depressed tree wont produce as many apples as it usually does but still it is trying its best with what it has in hands#it makes so much sense and we went to so many directions with this#i love it tho and i want to share#its okay to be an apple tree! its okay to be a mango tree! or anything!#they are all equally valid!#people sometimes have different preferences and thats okay! that's not on you#relationships#marcelinho
