New Friends

Sometimes you just have to make new friends.

There may come a time in your life when you feel stuck, stagnant or as if you are just going through the motions in life. You may be doing all you can and all you should, but for some reason the things and people around you remain the same. It's sort of like watching a scene in a movie where a set background scene is looped - for example, the outdoor scenery when a car is driving a long distance. Things around you begin to look the same and eventually become a blur.

If you feel this way and you're doing all that you should, then the problem isn't you. If you are experiencing growth and positive change in your life, but when you look around you get confused - it's time to make new friends.

When you've changed for the better and you're growing from within, that's when it's time to change outwardly. However, people, places and things in your life have weight just like the decisions you make. When that weight becomes so heavy that you can no longer enjoy the positivity within, it's time to explore your options for change. You wouldn't make the same decisions over and over despite the negative consequences every time, right? Likewise, your outward change should match your inward change.

Surround yourself with the people, places and things that support the positive change in your life. Surround yourself with bright, positive energy. When you look around and what you see doesn't line up with what you see when you look within...it's time to make new friends.

It's beautiful to be you...simply beautiful.
