Friendship

Friends can bring us joy, feel closer that family and can seem to "really understand" us. Sometimes they can be a drain and bring out the worst in us. Whatever your friends are like they reflect facets of you.

It is worth considering who your friends are and the qualities they have. Are you mutually supportive? Do you spend time with certain friends in certain circumstances e.g when things are going wrong but not when everything is alright? Does your friend only seek you out when she/he is in trouble? Do they bring out the best in you and see the best in you even when you don't?

Friends are those who walk alongside us for a while on our journey. They can teach us many lessons about ourselves, beliefs and attitudes but they are not there to use. They are not our therapist and must be treated with the respect, love and kindness that we want to experience.

What you will notice as you make personal changes for the better is that your friends will quite naturally and painlessly change around you although if you have some unhealthy friendships they will feel less comfortable with you and move on. You will notice new, more uplifting people will enter your life.
