Circles
We all have them whether you realize it or not.
Circle of family, friends, associates.
My outer circle are passerbys of my life.
And those I’ve removed from my circles.
I dont want them dead or anything, I want them to eat, just not at my table.
My circle of friends had always been fairly small. By friends I mean people I share time with, have chats regularly, trust with some information. I may even invite you to my home for some activity. People I like a little more than others, I may work with them, be related, maybe even childhood or some facebook friends.
I have an outer circle of associates, coworkers, Facebook friends, some family, people I’ve met through friends, people that could possibly be in the friend circle once I get to know them better.
Then there is my inner circle.
These are people I let into my life, home, heart. People i care about and share my life, thoughts, secrets. The people who have the capacity to hurt my heart.
This circle is small, and it’s rare if I let someone inside.
My inner circle contains people I may not speak to for 10 years, but when we do speak, it feels like we never missed a second.
People I could call and know they would drive hours to comfort me, and I would do the same.
The ones I tell my secrets, the secrets that could destroy me. But these people would take it to their graves and I would do the same for them.
We hurt for each other.
We protect each other.
We have each others back.
These are the people, if they ever betrayed me would crush my faith in humanity.
These are the people I love.
My God given family.
My family by choice.
My posse.
my squad.
My walk to the end of the earth people.
I hope your inner circle is faithful to you and you to them.
Your inner circle will be your pall bearers because they and you trust no one else to carry you home.
Strive to be part of someone’s inner circle.
Never betray a friend.
Life is too short to lose the trust and love of your most valued assets.
Be blessed….
