The more spiritually mature you become, the more you choose calm over chaos, distance over disrespect and uncomfortable truths over comfortable lies. You begin to prioritize your mental health, peace of mind and genuine happiness over everything. Part of this growth means not everyone is going to have access to you like before because you desire peace more than you desire attention. π€
Well put but goes to me even deeper. God made us to want company. BUT you realize not all mean you well, so hence more time alone. Just adding this, was just thinking about this part. Seeking one another out is normal. BUT everyone does not have great intentions, that is the hard part to learn as someone with no agenda.

I think there's a good balance between spending time alone to meditate in prayer with God to listen to him and spending time with a few good people you can trust and love on so he can listen to us and our needs too! ππ€π€
Yeah, hard lesson to learn, still takes me aback when I let someone in and they abuse that fact.....
I know π we must heal our hearts over and over again and it sucks balls!
It is just weird, I never attempted to get someone close with me and intentionally cause harm, therefore it is a foreign notion. Makes no sense, I just spend more time alone, and guard up better. Much as I can...like this local, I really thought he was a friend for ten years.
And my nephew, glad he came to make amends, but really what happened was unacceptable. Told this dude as he was hollering he hated me earlier, that is okay Jesus loves me. lol I mean what is wrong with some folks. I don't know. THANKFUL for God's friendship and the friendship of true christians.
