FRIENDSHIP; Define, Evaluate And Redefine by amokeme(f): 12:05pm On Dec 31, 2017
It's gonna be an awesome 2018!!!!!
All those you constantly check on and hold dear to your heart, but they don't return the favor? those you sent Christmas messages to and they read without replying? Please DROP them like a BAG OF BEANS! you don't need that heavy baggage.

Drop! Drop! Drop! Like it's HOT! and yes, #AttitudesHot� give room for people who actually care and not some people who believe is their right to be nasty or Ignore you without a reason, simply because they can!

Stop giving excuses for the trash "friends" throw at you!
Stop accommodating such people all in the name of;
"they are way back" or "we go way back" some WBs (way backs) can be useless! Peel the dead skin off your feet!

Never ever tolerate someone who uses what they know about you to hurt or berate you. No honey, that's not a friend!
COMMUNICATE your displeasure to them, and if they don't make EFFORTS to change?.. PLEASE DROP THEM!

Learn to define your relationships, mutual, platonic, intimate or otherwise.
Please enough of messing with the word "FRIEND" that should end with 2017!

you may know alot of people,
you may see alot of people around, but
not all should be classified or labelled as a friend! (Either by introduction or to yourself) Know WHO is actually your FRIEND and label accordingly. It has to be a mutual something!

There is a difference between
a colleague,
a course mate,
a roommate,
a project partner,
an acquaintance,
a church member
a school/work colleague
A secondary school/class mate
You don't have to rank them all up as "my friend" if you want to associate with someone as your friend, that's fine but please make sure that person is ready to reciprocate that feeling clearly!

Call people by their titles in your life. You have to mow off the weeds else your fresh grass won't glow! Please CUT AND DROP!
Friendship should me mutual, learn to define and re - define your relationships. The fact you were play mates with someone while growing up, or childhood friends doesn't mean one person should still force the relationship if the other is not corporating.. that's when redefinition comes in.

You haven't seen or being in touch with a childhood friend for 15 years and all of a sudden your paths cross.. please redefine to see if that person still qualifies to be your "FRIEND" before you open your mouth and start introducing him or her as a friend.

Know your place in the life of people and act on that lane. That way, we won't hurt ourselves. In the situation of mix signals? Please be a grownup and communicate to know where you actually stand.

All the safe treading just so you don't offend someone while displeasing yourself have to end with this year!
Stop worrying about pleasing everyone. Give yourself peace!

If there is any "friend" that makes you feel your life is not as great as theirs? Drop! drop! drop!
If there is anyone that makes you feel like you have to pretend to have it all together in order to fit in? Drop! Drop! Drop!
If there is anyone that make it seem they are doing you a favour by being friends with you? Drop them like a purging poop!
Fake friends?
Trashy friends?
Frenimies?
Fake family?
Toxic people? DROP THEM LIKE A SMELLY TRASH and apologise to yourself for all the foolishness and stupidity you let yourself tolerate this year and over the years from those people.

No! They can't go into your new phase with you. Eliminate what doesn't help you evolve. If a person doesn't synchronise with you spiritually and mentally, please for the love of yourself DROP them without an apology!

Does it mean you hate them? NO!
Does it mean you don't wish them well? NO!
Does it mean you will stop praying for them? NO!
Doesn't mean you will stop talking to them or hold grudges or keep malice with them either, it only means you know your place in their life and you are acting accordingly on your lane!

You need your sanity intact to make the most out of 2018 because it is your NEW DAWN!

A true friend will behave in a kind and very pleasant way toward you and anything that concerns you.
A true friend will always exhibit a positive attitude towards you.
A true friend takes genuine interest in you.
A true friend find ways of being a help or source of inspiration to you. Friendship shouldn't be parasitic.

True friendship is all about RECIPROCITY! being REAL and OPEN to each other without fear of being judged, criticised or mocked.

Friendship is to be nourished by the pleasure of shared interest and mutuality not competing or down casting the other emotionally.
I urge and appeal to you, define, evaluate and redefine what and who you want into your space today being the end to 2017 and don't start a new year tomorrow with some loads and baggage of crap all in the name of "friendship"

This is the key to success. For those who want to accomplish your goals in 2018. Get rid of negative energy from around you - firmly.
