Friends are like a target. Not THE Target but like the rings on a target. We have some friends that we keep super close and others that we keep at an arm's length. And sometimes we have people that we have in our close circle that we need to actually move to a circle that is further away and that is ok! As friendships get closer to the center of the target, as you deepen relationships and are willing to do more and more for those people, please make sure the energy you are giving is being reciprocated. Not necessarily at the same time, there are seasons of give and take, but the overall net energy needs to balance out. (Your children are the exception, they take what they want and that's just the way it is.)
