Reason Season Or a Lifetime


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 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 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 now it is 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.  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. 

       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 the person 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. 

     Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason,
a   season or a lifetime.


 


Moments in Life


There are moments in life when you miss someone
so much that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real!


When the door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often times we look so long at the
closed door that we don't see the one,
which has been opened for us.


Don't go for looks; they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth; even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile,
because it takes only a smile to
make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile.


Dream what you want to dream;
go where you want to go;
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want to do.


May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human and
enough hope to make you happy.


The happiest of people don't necessarily
have the best of everything;
they just make the most of
everything that comes along their way.


The brightest future will always
be based on a forgotten past;
you can't go forward in life until
you let go of your past failures and heartaches.


When you were born, you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life so at the end,
you're the one who is smiling and everyone
around you is crying.


to those who make you see the
brighter side of things when you are really down;
to those whose friendship you appreciate;
to those who are so meaningful in your life.

Don't count the years-count the memories...........



Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take;
but by the moments that take our breath away


 


Just some of my favorites i wanted to share with you

Awesome wisdom. Thanks.


One thing I know for sure about me coming to NA everyday is that I'm here for a reason, not for a season
