Ok, I could not resist this, it is Friday after all!

I think that most people spend their lives striving to be something that they are not and for things they do not need. It is very possible that when you strive too hard for things that are not meant to be, that you lose sight of the things that are right in front of you. So maybe stop, take a look at what you are striving for and you may be surprised at what you already have.
Have an awesome Friday and a great weekend!
Something that has been on my mind a great deal lately, is when do you let go of a ‘friendship’ or ‘relationship’ that is not working? I remember somebody once telling me that if a person does not add value to your life, then they should not be in it.
Then why is it so hard to just write people off? My husband has always told me that I am like ‘Mother Teresa’, always trying to save every lost soul and largely giving people the “benefit- of- the-doubt”. Although this can be a good quality, others can take advantage of this, abuse your trust and you get hurt in the process.
I do feel that as I ‘mature’, my need to please people and feel accepted is lessoning. So I am going to endeavour to take the advice above and move beyond the relationships in my past that could be holding me back. Easier said than done, of that I am certain but ‘I can only grow if I let go’!
