Everything in life requires a balance. Like the tree sprouts leaves, matures, then lets them fall to the ground; life is a balance of give and take. Like the ocean waves build, crash to the shore and retreat again; friendships have times of growth and times or rest.
Many of my friendships have been in rest for the last year and a half as I navigate the waters of being a new mom. Thankfully the waves seem to be building once again and I am able to make time for friends. At the same time I am once again seeking a balance of giving and receiving. And my wonderful friends are helping me with that balance.
I'm grateful for an old friend who reached out after years of distance. I'm grateful for friends that have been by my side even in my "dormancy". I'm grateful for the ebb and flow of life and the balance I am working towards. I'm grateful for my girlfriends that provide laughter and conversation. I'm grateful for my mom friends who provide support that I couldn't do without. I'm grateful for my friend that has shifted with me as we changed careers and relationships and is my biggest reminder to receive as much as I give. I'm grateful to receive today. I'm grateful to give this weekend and benefit from that as well.
What ebbs and flows are you experiencing this week? Have you found a balance of give and take? Are there any friendships that are ready to renew?
May today bless us in the search for balance. May our friendships be in sync and the ebb and flow occur naturally. Have a beautiful day!
