Food for thought…

Every day we see the happiness but also the pain that everyone goes through in life. Some people are very good at hiding it & some people are not.

It breaks my heart to see people who have had hardship all their lives still receiving it as an adult. As an adult you have the right to be friends with whoever you like. Stay where ever you like. Do whatever you like & be with whoever you like. You should never be made to feel bad about these choices or given attitude & a cold shoulder from others about your choices.

True friends & family should respect & love you enough to support you even if they don’t accept or support your choices.

No one should ever feel unwelcome in their own home or even the home of a loved one. Unfortunately, I see these actions daily & it breaks my heart. Your life choices are exactly that YOUR choices no one else’s.

“Respect those friends who fine time for you in their busy schedule, but really love those friends who never see their schedule when you need them.”  - Just when you thought you have friends for life they unfortunately show their true colours & you are back to square one all because you have one argument or disagreement that one of you can’t forget even after talking & apologising. This is not adult life. So please chose your friends wisely as you need them.

“Being strong is important but knowing who you can count on is equally important.” – You should be able to count on your best friends & family no matter what you are going through but some of us aren’t that lucky.

“True friends won’t grow apart even if they don’t talk every day.” – I wish this was true for every friendship story but it is not because some people think that it is okay to hurt their true friends because they chose to do something differently & didn’t make contact for a day.

“There is no comfort anywhere for anyone who dreads to go home.” – Sadly I have seen this first hand, someone who doesn’t want to go home because their house is a house not a home where they feel comfortable & welcome & instead they feel uncomfortable & unwelcome & that is not fair on anyone.

So please people read this is & be thankful for everyone in your life. Go & fix broken friendships. Make time for your loved one. Show them you appreciate & support them.
