People go
& People stay
The person
is question is desperate to talk to me! ;-)
Okay, back
to a subject discussed today.
People.
People who
go.
People who
come.
People who leave.
People who
stay.
People who
remain.
As we
already know people are everywhere.
How many
people have already come into your life, have crossed your path, have
influenced your life in profound way, have invested themselves in your life’s
journey in one way or the other, have taught you a lesson or two lessons for
that matter, how many of them you have loved and adored and cherished and
appreciated and was grateful for having them in your life and then you perhaps
left them or they had left you or somebody was cheating on somebody?
Now, let us
consider how many people have left you totally unexpectedly? How many of them
you counted on for being and staying there? Did you get too, way too attached to
them? Did you rely on them every time, any time? Were you in some way addicted
to them? Did your life totally and absolutely and utterly depend on them? Were they
your ‘everything’ in your life, your safe haven? Did they belong to your heart
as well as your soul as well as your mind as well as your body? Did they represent
the other half of being you? Did they become your teacher, your guardian angel,
your soul mate, your soul partner, your soul lover, your soul love, your soul ‘everything’?
Now, how
about the people still and currently living and being in your life? Who are
they? How often do you get to see them? How long have you known them for? Do
they represent a huge part of your life? Do you love them? Do you appreciate
them? Do you adore them? Do you cherish them? Are you being forever grateful
for having these people in your life? Do you laugh with them often? Where have
you been meeting and seeing each other? Are you having dinner parties? Do you
smile at one another when you finally get together? Do you guys kiss? Do you
hug? Do you say sweet nothings that only you understand? Do you embrace and
celebrate your differences? Do you buy each other presents/gifts? Do you
receive anything from them in return? Do you help one another? If so, in what
ways, how many ways can you think of helping them? Do you help by babysitting and
watching over and looking after and taking care of their children, or yours if
you have any? Are you on different path? Did they move on? Did you move on with
your life? Do you attend each other’s birthday parties? Do you go to see
movies? Do you visit theatres? Do you cook for each other? Do you go shopping
for food and clothes together when you both have some spare minutes? Do you
share secrets together? Do you share meals together? Do you call, do you email,
do you text, do you chat, do you skype with each other? Do you send and post
one another postcards and letters when away on holidays? Do you cry over each
other circumstances? Are you one another’s shoulder to cry on? How often do you
connect on a profound level? Do you pin in dates if and when you all meet again
together? Do you play games outside with each other? Have you ever played board
games together?
Yes,
obviously, some people who come into our life stay there for a season, some
stay for a lesson and some of them stay for a lifetime.
Who do you
choose to stay and to keep and to remain for a lifetime?
Who would
you pick?
Who would
you rather avoid?
What role
and play do you represent in this particular relationship circle?
How many
real friends do you have?
Are you
being a real friend to somebody?
Are you
being a soul mate / soul partner to somebody?
Are you
teaching somebody a valuable lesson or two?
How have you
been making friends?
Do you find
it easy to meet and to find and to make friends with like-minded, interesting
and fun people like you?
Where would
you go and what would you say, how would you start, how would you approach
them?
How long
have you been looking for, searching for some of them?
Do you have
a pen pal?
What would
be the common interests and hobbies that you could share together?
Do you
prefer real life to online cyber space?
Can you be
real open and honest and vulnerable about yourself with them?
What sort of
people have you been surrounding yourself with?
Do you
benefit from each other?
Do you
really, really, really like one another?
Whatever you
do, wherever you go, whoever you meet, whenever you are doing what you are
doing, there are people and are going to be. The relationships are representing
thus an incredible part of your life. We are built and shaped based on the
relationships we hold and keep and benefit from and learn from and cherished
and surround ourselves with. We need one another to grow and evolve into better
human beings and there is no better way of doing it rather than through
relationship, through the people we share our life with, we share all our ups
and downs with, the cry and laugh together, through thick and thin, and all
that in between.
Relationship
is the way how we relate to each other. Yes, of course, we can experience
everything on our own, however, by experiencing it with another human being who
is on the same wavelength as ourselves are, we simply and absolutely magnify
the human experience of this very special and particular activity. We would
have so much to talk about right after the happening, we would have the same
memories, the same of similar feelings, the same joys, smiles, laughs or cries,
or emotions or even sorrows.
