People come into your life for a Reason, a
Season, or a Lifetime.
When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to
do.
When
someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a
need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you
through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you
physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they
are. They are here for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any
wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do
something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes
they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What
we must realize is that our need has been met, and our desire fulfilled; their
work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to
move on.
When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is
because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an
experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have
never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It
is real!; But, only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you
lifetime lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid
emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person; and put
what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind but friendship has a special sense.
Thank you for being a part of my life.
