It’s easy to say we love people through their good and the bad. Living in the reality of people’s bad choices is difficult. Being conditionally forgiving, unconditionally supportive and non judgmental requires humility, patience and understanding.
Many of us have watched the same friend face the same trials and tribulations because of their actions or lack there of.
Are you to ignoring a reoccurring theme? Do the same people call to suck your energy? Do the same people call to ask for assistance? Are these the same people who aren’t available for you?
Continuing to speak words of encouragement into an inattentive being helps no one.
When being there through the good and bad serves no one.
The person who seeks your support gains no prospective on their life or the energy put forth to support them.
When supporting a loved one becomes mentally draining or causes a shift in your spirit.
People who share happiness from a distance but bring pain to your feet.
It’s easy, it’s fun and in some cases rewarding to see those in our life happy. To rejoice in the highs of our loved ones gives the relationship balance. The amplification of joy spreads. Happiness within my life allows me to be happy for your life and your place in mine. Just as your happiness allows you to be grateful for the bonds you have forged.
Balance is key, friendships are sanctuaries, safe spaces to peel back your armor.
Love people for who they are and where they are in their life. Show up for people the same way they show up in your life or risk loosing them.
