Today’s post will be short but hopes to strike the heart of you, dear readers. One of our prime purpose in this world is to help others go through the complexities of life. Seasons will prove who are just here to ‘drop by’ and those who are for good. 

People need a sense of belongingness. Many times we try to seek for it in a wrong way thinking that we must compromise some of our beliefs so we can fit in. This world will introduce to us different kinds of people who will influence us deliberately or not. Remember that we cannot risk the future for the sake of temporary companionship. It is better that we go alone than feel being half or barely appreciated. 

Let us not trust destiny too much that people will stay. It takes a lot of effort to make relationships work regardless of what level you are in — family, friend, colleague, S.O., or any label you tag it with. The bottomline is our purpose in their life shall be well-guarded. Otherwise, we might lose the best ones for us.
