There is nothing that can light you up like the laughter with a friend and a joyous soul. In our journeys in life, we will come across all types of personalities which are; powerful, abrasive, downright hilarious(my favorite type), inspiring, peppy, self-loathing, born-leaders, manipulative, creative, Debbie downers, mentors, bullies, resentful, respectful, chaotic, and simply lovely. Now we all can harbor some or all of these traits in some way or another, after all we are all human, but it is how much of yourself you spend in certain areas that can speak volumes about your overall personality type as well as the one’s we surround ourselves with.
The simple truth in a blissful world in relation to relationships is to be open to everyone and give them a chance. Know what you like in a person, may that be that you prefer to have a lot in common; but never weigh out folks whom differ from you. Difference can be just as colorful and teach you things about yourself you may not have known otherwise.
I am so very blessed to have some of the most incredible people in my life whose souls could out shine the sun; they are all so bright with charisma and joy. Now I know I may sound like I’m exaggerating a bit by saying “I believe my friends to be perfect” but I assure you this is not a far stretch at all from the truth. They each have several important things in common, that being they are all very funny, loving, positive, non-selfish & giving. Yes, there are many more different qualities that set them apart in different ways and that is what makes them so positively brilliant, individually unique, & interesting. In turn these wonderful beings add much light to my life. I like to think that I was lucky to stumble upon them, choose & cherish them and in return they have done the same.
Take note from the destructive relationships we all have come across at some point or another in our lives and learn from it. And let me state, never allow a sizzled out relationship keep you closed off from future ones. I’ve seen this too much and hey, I’ve been there too (for like a minute), it’s normal to go there but never deliver on this thought. It’s acting out on it which can make you miss out on some of the most fabulous people. People in our lives serve much purpose whether they are a stranger with a kind word or a blunt truth you pass on the street, neighbor, child hood friend, co-worker, altar boy who simply flashes you a gentle smile that makes your day, family member etc.
So as I check out, I will go out on the note , “embrace all but be wise to keep those extra special joyous souls close & cherish them”, in turn I’m certain they will do the same by you.
