I want to share with you a letter from my friend that she sent for me. Here it is.. My friend: People come into your life for a REASON, a SEASON or a LIFETIME. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a REASON. It is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provid you with guidance and support, To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on you part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled their work is done, The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on. Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it is real, but only for a reason. LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon, in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. Thank for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime. Forever Companion, Ciades friend

I liked reading that. I think the same thing can be applied to situations also. We find ourself in a situation that may last a long time or a short time and the reason it has arrived it for us to learn how to deal with that particular aspect in our life. Resistance to the more "unpleasant" lessons tend to make them hang around a lot longer - so acceptance it a way of becoming one with the situation, transcending it and moving on.. :-)
