UNSWEET PERSUASION

Good morning everyone.  Hope you all had a great weekend and are ready to face another week.  Of all the friends you have who is the one you can really count on or do you have someone in your life that resembles that at all?  I know that throughout my life, different people have come and gone.  Some have remained longer than others but I can't say I am friends with everyone I was friends with ten years ago.

Life and situations both bring about changes.  One of those wonderful changes is the flow of who comes in and out of our lives.  This is because people can grow apart emotionally.  There are also those times when a friendship is no longer mutually beneficial and you simply part ways.  The relationship has simply taken its course without any feelings hurt and only sweet memories to recall.

What about that person in your life who you think is your friend but does not have your best interest at heart.  The one who instead of supporting you is secretly jealous of you.  One wouldn't think that adults can behave in this manner but they most certainly can and do.  That friend who you come to for advice but who steers you the opposite way of where you should be going. 

Today's quote is, "Be aware of unwanted suggestions that intentionally divert you from your path."   When I was a child I had a "best" friend who never really took on that role but as a child and as an insecure child, I would listen with intent at the suggestions of my friend never realizing that my happiness and well being were never on her radar.

Now that you are adult and more aware of who you are, are you also aware of that type of person in your life?  The one who really does try and divert you.  Who gives you bad suggestions on purpose because they can't find the joy in your happiness.  Who would think those people exist but they do and sometimes they are the ones we call "friend."  Jealousy is one of the most destructive emotions anyone can have.  It is destructive obviously for the envied but also for the jealous person. 

That emotion does nothing but create chaos in your soul.  A true friend needs to be someone you can count on.  Someone who cares about what happens to you and answers your questions honestly and with pure intent.  Be wary of those who are never happy for you when things are good in your life but show up as soon things take a turn for the worse.  Like an ambulance chaser they are the first ones on the scene not to support you but to commiserate with you and to show you how they have it worse.

Seek out a friend for guidance and support but if you are truly on your path, you will feel it in your heart!

Have a wonderful Monday everyone! ~Love, Amy
