People come into your life for a REASON, a SEASON or a LIFETIME. When you know which one it is you will know what to do for that person.....
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They may 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 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 and force you to take a stand. What you must realize is that your need has been met. Your desire fulfilled and their "work" is now done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it's time to move on.....
Some people come into your life for a SEASON because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh when you needed it the most. They may teach you something you have never experienced. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it for it is real. But only for a SEASON.....
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons. Things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your "job" is to accept the lesson, love this person and put what you have learned to good use in all other relationships of your life. It is said that "love is blind" but friendship is clairvoyant....
A reason or a season or a lifetime, people come into your life for one of these. And sadly, they leave as well. Enjoy each day as if you knew it was your last because someday it will be....Live, laugh, love.
