I can't agree with that, either. The space you exist in is yours. Indeed, one day, you'd have to justify what you've taken up in the world. So, there's no reason to become the secondary character of your own life. There is no reason to decide that you matter less. No one else should matter so much that you'd consider your own existence so worthless. What point is there to your existence other than to build someone else up? It sounds nice on paper. It sounds nice on text. "I lived for others." But what it also means is: "I couldn't live for myself." And those that you wanted to change for, when they realize they took that away from you, and had you lose yourself to their wishes and feelings, will not be capable of forgiving themselves.
