It is good to watch. It is good to be patient and see what is going to happen. It is okay to remain at a distance. You don't always have to be in the middle of everything. Especially if it is someone's else's something to begin with.
Their party. Their argument. Their meltdown. Their car accident. Their wedding. Their funeral.
