Your relationships can
tell a lot about you.
My mother would say to
me be careful of a person that has no friends and when you meet their friends
it tells a lot about the individual.
I did not get that until
I reached adulthood of course. I realized that the people who surround
you can make a big difference in your life. My mother was so dedicated to
this idea when my sister and I were kids that she did not let us go outside and
play with kids in my neighborhood because she thought they were a bad
influence. I hated it!!! I thought she was the worse mother in the world.
As I matured I found out
that people can either help you get the best from life or they can cause you to
become stuck in the same place. If you are surrounded by people that are
driven and want a life that they create with a purpose, you will do the same
thing. But if you are around a group of people that expect nothing from
life or themselves, you will react the same way.
I am sure you have heard
the saying, they act like crabs in a barrel. This is a true
statement because like crabs, people imitate the movement of those that
surround them.
It is fact that we learn
more about ourselves and become better people when we are in relation with each
other. But who we allow in our lives makes a big difference in the
outcome of our lives.
Who are the people in your life?
