People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. ....

When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that 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 things 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.

I leave these lines for our dear friend Maria

Miss Bourbs.....I hope your road to good health is paved with 18 karat stones for you deserve them so. You were originally a reason person who became a season person and all these years later I now consider you a lifetime person. We will drink a bourbon and coke in your honor on Saturday night (big smiles).

Get well soon x

I passed this beautiful Flame Tree at Pyree on Saturday and had to stop to take a few photos of it. No wonder they call it a Flame Tree......
