A few weeks ago my teacher asked us in our group dynamics class, Do you really need anyone in your life? And I, without hesistation said yes, and I began to name off all the people who I "thought" I needed. But this week I have come to the conclusion I dont need any other people besides my family. Half the people that come through your life truly come and go. Prime example the best friends you had in middle school are more than likely not the same people your still BFFs with right now, RIGHT?!?! EXACTLY! Now dont take my words the wrong way, its great to have friends but dont begin to be dependent upon them and thinking you would be crushed without them.
One of my dear friends Simone told me earlier this week, "your born alone you die alone," and that is very true, so I have no use to be stressing about a friendships that will more than likely not last forever.
I also realized all the accomplishments I made in my life, none of my friends can take any credit for them, only MYSELF! Being a full time college student in the top 15% of my class, and being a part time worker who is still actively involved in school organizations, was all Janee Thames doing, and if your not helping me excel in any of those areas....what is your purpose?
I have some of the most awesome friends in my life and I do appreciate them, but TRUST if we were no longer to be friends, I will not be depressed! And also as a PSA, this is not directed towards anyone because I truly dont have harsh feelings towards anyone in my life, past or present, cause hatred is an evil spirit that takes up to much energy to entertain.
This has just been something pressing on my heart that I needed to express.
"The man of many friends will prove himself a bad friend, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother." Proverbs 18: 24
