There comes a point in your life when you realize:   

Who matters,
Who never did,
Who won’t anymore…
And who always will.
So, don’t worry about people from your past,
There’s a reason why they didn’t make it to your future.

(Thank you, Joan, for sending this to me at a time I really needed it.) 

This past year has brought many new people into my life and a few have left as well.  I find myself contemplating all the relationship, old and new, and what they mean to me.  Friends are important to me.  Long term relationships are important.  People who want to the best for me are important.  People who know all my little quirks and triggers and like me anyway are important.   I am grateful for all the wonderful people I have in my life – thank you all for being there…for supporting me…for seeing me for who I really am, all of who I am, and still sticking around:).

People do leave for a reason and whatever that reason is doesn’t really matter.  They just aren’t supposed to be there anymore.  We don’t have to take it personally.
