I have come to realize that people always come into people's life for a REASON, a SEASON AND a LIFETIME. You will know exactly what to do when you figure out which it is as regard the people in your life now. Thus, 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, or to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or even spiritually. They may seem like a Godsend to you, and they are. They are there for a reason, you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing 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 and sometimes they just 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, our desire fulfilled; their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on.

At a stage in life when it is your time to share, grow, or learn, then people come into your life for a SEASON. 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  but only for a season just as spring turns to summer and summer to fall, the season eventually ends. LIFETIME relationships teach you a lifetime of lessons. They are lessons and those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional, mental and spiritual foundation. Your responsibility is to stay and lean, accept the lesson, love the person/people and put what you have learned to use in all other issues and areas in your life.

But for a REASON, in a SEASON at a LIFE TIME, not everyone is healthy enough to have a front row seat in our lives. There are some people in your life that need to be loved from a DISTANCE. It's amazing what you can accomplish when you let go of, or at least                minimize your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not-going-anywhere relationships/friendships.  Observe the relationships around you. Pay a careful attention.        Which ones lift and which ones lean?             Which ones encourage and which ones discourage? Which ones are on a path of growth uphill and which ones are going downhill? When you leave certain people do you feel better or feel worse? Which ones always have drama, act funny or don't really understand, know or appreciate you?  The more you seek quality, respect, growth, peace of mind, love and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in the front row and who should be moved to the balcony of Your Life. The truth of the matter is that if you cannot change the people around you; change the people you are around."Remember that the people we hang with will have an impact on both our lives and our outcome. And so we must be careful to choose the people we hang out with, as well as the information with which we feed our minds. We should not share our dreams with negative people, nor feed our dreams with negative thoughts. It's your choice and your life..... It's up to you who and what you let in it......
