RELATIONSHIP..

It's Tuesday night and the flu is slowly making its way out of my body.. The flu. I didn't get a flu shot because I personally don't feel it'll help me. 

The topic I wanted to touch base on is relationships.  When I say relationships I'm not referring to the typical love interest.. a spouse or significant other. I mean our family, friends, those we work with all day long (co-workers or simplify it), neighbors and others

My definition of family would have to be those in your life that no matter what happens will always have an infinite amount of love to give to you, never walk away emotionally, share memories that no other relationships could possibly ever come close to replacing. They will always be there. Sometimes you'll build such an amazing bond with your family that it seems too good to be true to be called family. Family you're born into in a way, related by blood as so many say. Now taking a step back you may be picturing a family with no faults. It rains and sometimes it pours, but please.. Please keep in mind the sun always comes out! There are always situations that families face together or apart. They may not be around or there are always those unresolved issues that break up a happy home; however, they are the same ones that surprise you when life has carried you to the edge. In a way, to me, they're you're forever friends and will always know you in a way other relationship won't. "To me, family means putting your arms around each other and being there."Family is very important to many people. Whether it’s your parents, siblings, cousins or any relative in the family, these are the people who you trust and can depend on. When there’s family problems in the house, understand that it’s normal and that many things in the house can be resolved. Even if you get mad at someone who’s in the family, you’ll eventually forgive them through time.

Friends! This one is huge and I need to keep it as short, sweet and simple as possible. Friends branches to so many other sub categories. You have acquaintances, those you confide in, the ones that just want to have a good time. All in all they're friends. At one point in your life they may have been yours everything. The one that kept you together when you felt there was no one else to hold you up. I feel our emotions are the same with friends as they are with our family relationships but our actions seem to change with each person we love. I've noticed in life observing people as I LOVE to gives hugs to everyone.. It’s easier for people to hug friends than family. I don't feel you love either less or more, it's the approach. It's what each person brings out of you. My suggestion HUG EVERYONE! Start now, start tomorrow! "A friend is someone who helps you up when you're down, and if they can't, they lay down beside you and listen."A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same. A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be.

It's hard to get up and go to work every day, I think everyone will agree. Before this I would say that it’s hard to get up and go to class but now different. Yes! Now I still have to go to class but it’s not for test but for getting a job and it’s about work! What makes it worthwhile, the money? Of course! Co-workers you build relationships with. Me personally, I feel I'm at work more than I am home now. During the week that probably is true if you're counting the hours sleeping. The people I work with make it close to easy waking up and dragging me to my spirit every day. We support one another, since we're all in it together. It's so important to build relationships at work; it's not good to be in a negative environment since work is the wood that keeps the fireplace burning, right? "Never lose site of the fact that the most important yardstick of your success will be how you treat other people - your family, friends and coworkers, and even strangers you meet along the way."

I love everyone so much and the various relationships we've all built throughout the years. I try so hard to express that to everyone and hope you all know how important you are. =)

Goodnight everyone, love you all!!
