"Change is inevitable, growth is intentional." -Unknown

I have been thinking a lot lately about relationships. My relationships with family, friends and God. I have been distant to all three in the past few years but have recently been getting back on track. Some of my relationships are getting closer yet some are fading away, that chapter is slowly closing, and that is okay. If that is the way it is supposed to be I am at peace with that. There are some relationships that are regaining momentum and I am very excited to be on the ride. I have also been getting closer in fellowship with God.
Due to the bad relationships my focus had been blurred but thankfully I am back on path.
It amazes me how different each relationship is with each individual I know. Certain people bring me such joy to get close to. They encourage me, inspire me, help me to see how beautiful I truly am. My self worth has been so bad over the years that it feels good that certain people see what I needed to see years ago. Their intentions are pure. That makes me feel at peace. I have had such bad relationships over the years that it is nice to have such good people in my life. Finally, I believe my choices are getting better.

As Hans F. Hansen says "People inspire you or they drain you-pick them wisely." This is so true. I am doing my best to be around positive people that inspire me. After being around certain people for way too long, isolated from even my own self, I am longing to be around those certain people that inspire me. Thankfully those people have been put into my path,especially one that I thought may be fading away due to prior isolation from a bad relationship.
Change is inevitable. People will come and go throughout a lifetime, yet growth is intentional. I will choose to make good choices in the people I let into my life. My hope has been restored. My faith growing ever stronger, my heart becoming softer. I will guard my heart yet enjoy every second of the time we can spend together.~Renee
