"Tread the Waters of Something New"

DF: 13

If I am to be totally honest in my "Transparent Existence," I have been guilty of fracturing a couple of friendships along the way, in my Life. I have allowed new friendships to hijack old friendships, neglecting the balance that they are both entitled to. Have you ever just fallen off of the radar to the point where a blip would be considered a gross exaggeration? I know that I have!

True Friendships are worthy of your attention and deserve the best that you have to offer them. We should revere them and hold them in the highest regard for they are a privilege and not a right, especially after we have left them, for whatever reason.

If we are to be completely honest with ourselves, from time to time we drift or allow ourselves to "Tread the Waters of Something New." Not in lieu of, but to see what it has to offer us and if that something is both palatable and compatible.

Relationships usually catch us up in their rip currents and before we are even able to blink an eye, we are continuously pulled back out, even after we are ready to come back in.

Life is all about striking a balance and being there for one another, irrespective of the distance that we have drifted apart. It is never too late to swim back to the reality of your beach, to the shores where each grain of sand means something to you, and represents a part of who and what you are.

In the process of discovering "new," do not lose sight of the "old." The new broom might indeed sweep better, but it is the old broom that knows the corners.

Smile and have a wonderfully Blessed day!

God, Love, and Smile Always!
