Manifesting epiphany

There is always going to be that one person in your life that just want to be around you just because the fact that you are you. Dealing with people who always take and take and never want to give is so draining because you come to the realization that you have to make sure that they are satisfied with their lives and by doing this it never leaves anytime for you.

I came to this conclusion today when my two dear friends help me realize that I haven't asked myself  "Asha what do you want? What do you need? Are you happy?"  I would always give and give and never have the time to make sure I was okay. And the upsetting part of it all was that these individuals who would always want something out of me were no where to be found when I needed them. It was a good conversation that I never thought that I would need but thank goodness for those two individuals, if it wasn't for them I probably still be thinking its okay to put my needs and wants and aspirations aside.

I hope this doesn't come off as me being a person who doesn't want anything to do with anyone, that is not the case at all, I would jump through hoops for my family and dear friends. But no one should feel the need to put others before themselves all the time. I understand if its once in a while, but always? It drains you out. My friend said," you have an energy in you that you can give people, but when you give that piece of energy away, its suppose to be filled back and when its not replaced, your dying inside." It might not be the deepest quote of all, but its a quote that helped me come to this new view of things. He helped me realize that, yeah, Its okay to help others in need, but when your needs or wants are put aside at all times its not a healthy way of living.


To these two amazing friends, I want to thank you with all my heart. You two truly bring the happiness out of me and I'm truly honored and blessed to have you guys in my life.

Simply, Asha
