Hey friend,
Recently, I was playing a card game with a friend, and one of the questions caught me off guard:
“Why do you think we met?”
It felt light in the moment, but it was a question that deserved some thought.
We rarely pause to think about this.
We may meet people randomly but friendships are rarely accidental. Some people enter into our lives at critical times. Some come when we are in the process of becoming. Some come to distract us and some come to remind us who we are.
Sometimes too, we forget who someone really is because we are focused on who they are not right now.
Clarity invites us to remember.
Friendship is not only about longevity. It is about purpose. What does this connection awaken in me? What do I learn? What did I offer?
Sometimes remembering why someone is in our lives helps everything make more sense.
Question:
Why do you think you met some of the people who have become important to you?
