I stumbled across this tonight while screwing around online. (I can't find an author name so my apologies for not giving proper credit. ) It still amazes me how when I am willing, I hear, or read in this case, exactly what I need to.
People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you will know exactly what to do.Some people come into our lives and quickly go..Some people become friends and stay awhile...leaving beautiful footprints on our hearts...and we are never quite the same because we have made a good friend!!!
I have always struggled with letting people pass from my life. Friends, family, sponsors, sponsees, lovers. It has never been a graceful or peaceful process to watch. My tantrums have been especially magnificent with love. I am making progress in that department. My outside reactions are improving, but the agonizing feelings of abandonment still persist when I insist on sitting in my suffering.
Tonight I am practicing feeling gratitude for the people in my life, past and present. Thank you for allowing me opportunities to practice. Thank you for teaching me what I needed to know. Thank you for helping me to grow. Thank you for inspiring me, Thank you for loving me.
