The Reason

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support,
to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.

Relationships
How do relationships come about? What brings two unique people together into harmony? Is it fate or a mystical attraction between two distinct entities that makes things happen? Yet, what does it really mean to be in a relationship and why do people like each other?
Sometimes I feel disillusioned with the whole thing. Is it really a trial and error kind of thing? Do you continuously date until you find the one just like how Edison tried all sorts of materials before he found tungsten? Or do you just keep searching for the one as a hormonal single gay? It's pretty sad when people you know start breaking up then you start thinking to yourself "So where did all that apparent love go to?" Can an apparent feeling of love just disappear into thin air and if it can was it really love? Perhaps it was a mistake from the start but both parties were just to blind to see even as they looked at it right before their eyes. What comes after being in a relationship anyway? Unlike movies and cartoons where marriage and/or just getting attached is the end of turbulent times, it is but the start of something new more than anything.
How do 2 people come together and live happily? Can someone explain to me how a relationship is supposed to work and how people find the someone they like to coincide with the someone who likes them. Everything just seems fuzzy.
