People Power
Relationships are the most important connections in our lives. We spend a great portion of our time cultivating and nurturing them, as well we should; the people in our lives can inspire us, and even drive us, to do things we fear. They see our potential, and push us to meet that potential. They do this, because they love us. If we are smart we let the people who care about us, know exactly who we are, we don't hide ourselves for the sake of an image.We do this because, we know the people we love, will be there to help us fulfill our potential, and overcome our shortcomings.
However, sometimes a person will enter into our lives, that we really care about; unfortunately, their intentions aren't so honorable. It seems that for some reason these are the people in our lives that we provide with the most power. We give them control in our lives, they haven't earned.
This is something a lot of us do in our lives, and we do it to our own detriment. These people drag us down, make us lose sight of our potential, they highlight our shortcomings, and all the while we continue to empower them. This is stupid. In these situations we need to learn to step back from our emotions, go into a sort of self preservation mode, and take more of an intellectual approach. You may never know what their intentions, or motives are, but in the grand scheme of things you don't need to. If a person in your life doesn't drive you to be a better you; if they don't inspire you, or lift you up, that person shouldn't be in your life.
It's better to take them out of your life, and deal with the loss, than to let them drag you down, and deal with the heartache they will cause in your future. furthermore, we all make mistakes in our lives, sometimes grave mistakes. Those mistakes help us to identify the people in our lives that are there for us.
If there is a person in your life that constantly reminds you of those mistakes, or takes every opportunity to hurt you with those mistakes. Get that person out of your life; they don't belong. A relationship worth having must be mutually beneficial.
