it makes me think of another phrase...
"the road to hell is paved with good intentions"
these ideas are pretty straight forward, but apply them to real life and it's not so simple... people are different, think differently, act differently, have different morals, values... etc. this is why communication is so critical in any relationship. this is why we are drawn to similarly minded people. this is why stronger relationships are built over time.
it's a two way road where both intention and perception are sharing lanes in both directions. wrap your mind around that.
