Why is time so weird? One minute, best friends with someone a guy or a girl, and the next they are married, or gone, as if you had never met. How do the weeks fly by so quickly we forget to stop and take a minute to be grateful for everyone around us. For all the amazing friends we have. I love all of my friends so much, and I have so much fun with them all the time. It scares me that they are only going to be in my life for a moment. I want to keep them forever. This past week was Spring break. One of those moments of my life that I will treasure forever. I don't know how time flies by so fast, but sometimes I wish we could just slow it down.. Anyway this next week I am back off to school, and more than half way done with student teaching. I have 2 weeks to write my action research paper, which I am doing on motivation. How to motivate students? And then my graduation banquet for math... I can't believe I took all those math classes... and then my last math tutor party, with all my little tutor nerdy friends. Then graduation, and then I will be done. Then what do I do with my life??? Where do I go? I have always talked about how nice it's going to be when I'm done with school, and this and that, but now the time has come, and I still don't know where I am going, and my season is up.
Anyway here is my favorite poem.
Reason, Season, or Lifetime
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
When you figure out which one it is,
you will know what to do for each person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON,
it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty;
to provide you with guidance and support;
to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend, and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON,
because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.
They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it. It is real. But only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons;
things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person,
and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
