You may not think too deeply into why you meet certain people in your life but when you do, I think it becomes obvious. I believe that there is a purpose behind everything. We cross paths with individuals who are intended to teach us something or have us teach them something. I’ve had friends come into my life realizing that they needed a friend to be emotionally available to them and conveniently I was. We have all types of friends: Church friends, school friends, family friends, party friends, work friends, advice friends and so on. I am hands down the advice friend. I can’t manage to have a single conversation where I am not speaking from a higher power (GOD!) and inputting it into my friends. I am an old spirit at heart and see life from a deeper perspective than most people in my age range. Perhaps this is because of the experiences I’ve dealt with in life or the fact that I generally hang out with people older than me, or both.

My heart is somehow in tune with those around me who need spiritual uplift the most.  A person’s name can come to my mind and I will feel the urge to want to send them a HELLO message or call. Odds were they needed to talk to someone or found my message uplifting telling me, “I needed that. Thank you.”  God uses us all differently and that’s the beauty of having a variety of friends. The important thing to know is what type of friend you are and be the best one you can be.

My happiness comes from the happiness I can bring others, even if it’s something as simple as a positive text message or encouraging phone call. Sometimes it’s those smaller things we do for one another that make the most impact.

Much love,
