Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become.

When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.

YOU GOT TO STOP FEELING INSECURE IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP. OWN IT!

When I was younger I often felt inadequate and “not good enough” to be friends, lovers, or business partners with certain people. Sometimes I simply couldn’t understand what others saw in me. I was very insecure.

I ended many promising relationships because of my insecurity. In my mind, it felt easier for me to end it before they did. Walking away rather than risking the heartbreak of rejection was how I justified my behavior to myself. But after awhile, as I grew emotionally, I began to realize that I wanted and needed the comfort and support of long-term relationships.

We all want COMPANIONSHIP, we all want to be loved, to be cared for, to be told we look BEAUTIFUL and HANDSOME, we all want to be needed.

With the increasing rate of Divorce in the country and Christian marriages also as high, I see alot of single parents in the future. People who would rather focus on their career and when stable enough get either a surrogate (men) or a sperm doner (women) and have a family.

Surviving the ups, downs, and lightning storms of other people’s moodiness can be quite a challenge. It’s important, though, to remember that some moody, negative people may be going through a difficult stage in their lives. They may be ill, chronically worried, or lacking what they need in terms of love and emotional support. Such people need to be listened to, supported, and cared for (although whatever the cause of their moodiness and negativity, you may still need to protect yourself from their behavior at times).
