For a reason, a season, a lifetime ...

People always 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 there for a 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, 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...And like Spring turns to Summer
And Summer to Fall, the season eventually ends.

LIFETIME RELATIONSHIPS teach you a lifetime of 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/people (anyway); 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 is clairvoyant...

I have always remembered this when I first read it. It affirmed my belief that we are all interconnected in someways or the other. Everyone's path cross for a reason. Or at least that is what I like to believe in.

And why this entry?
So I will always have it by my side instead of just relying on my memory.
I wonder who would be my lifetime friends? And who would fade away and be a piece of memory?
