for a reason, season or lifetime.

How do we know if a particular relationship, a friendship, or a random encounter are for a reason, a season or for a lifetime?
Not long ago, someone gave me to read a poem writing by an unknown author, and if you look on internet you will easily find it.
It is a lovely, little poem that tells us about how people come into our life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
I am not going to write the whole thing down, but i will quote some parts of it.
I have to admit that I didn’t know much about it, in spite everything i always believed of a reason, or a purpose behind each encounter.
So here we are, just a brief word on it.
When we know how to differentiate for which scenarios each person is here in our close circle, apparently it is said that we have the key for successful relationships, less dramas (hopefully...), and then we should know what to do and how to deal with each new person that we meet.
A person, who comes into one's life for a reason:
This person is here to” meet a need you have expressed”. They might help you to go through a problem, “bring support and guidance and nourish an emotional, physical or spiritual need”.
When your need has been met and your “desire fulfilled they will bring the relationship to an end, by walking away or forcing you to take a stand”.
We must then realize that it is time to move on.
Not so easy to do, one might say. Besides, if we recall all the people that we have met randomly, bursting into our life and living it as fast as a flashlight, leaving us bewildered, does it seem to be a reason to grab behind each of them...?!
When it is for a season, the people you meet are here to, maybe teach you something you have never done.
“It is your time to share, grow and learn.”
“They bring you peace and make you laugh.”
It is a big moment of joy, but only for a season...
When it is for a lifetime, it is when you learn lifetime lessons. Your task is to “accept the lesson, love the person”, and put in practice what you have learned to “use in all other relationships and areas in your life”.
“Lifetime relationships help you to build your emotional foundation”.
How do we know who is what?
Well, that is the tricky part, but as soon as you have the feel to recognize what’s has been sent to you, all you have to do is enjoy the ride and you will be fine!
