Relationships

If a person wants to be a part of your life, they will make an obvious effort to do so. Think twice before reserving a space in your heart for people who do not make an effort to stay.

While this might be true, friendships do not always start this way but some do end up this way, unfortunately.

I am a firm believer of maintaining relationships the best you can. Whether via phone, text, call, email or pictures; it is important to always put an effort in keeping your relationships alive and healthy. This also depends on the type of relationship too; because not all demand or need a constant checking-in. And there are some that will fall apart if a daily or every other day check-in is ignored.

But, if circumstances challenge the strength of your relationship with another friend, it's important to try to see if it's salvageable. If it is, I'm sure that it'll be with some boundaries; and if it's not, then it'll be with some emotional heartache and break-up.

No matter where you find yourself in the nature of your relationships, remember to take the best part of it and try to forget the worst part of it. Don't let the pain of the bad days ruin the memories of the great days you had.

Happy Thursday!
