What do you need in a friend?

 

 

Friends are wonderful – and they can also be too kind for our own good.  They are the ones who will try to make us feel better. They may try to convince us we’re right, even when we know we’re not. They love us and they want us to be happy, so they try to keep things calm.

That’s great but it may not be much good for your soul.

Perhaps you don’t need a friend. Perhaps you need a Soul Partnership. A Soul Partner will challenge you, will risk upsetting you, because the thing that may be at stake is the integrity of your soul. That’s too important to be trifled with, and making us feel better may, indeed, be trifling with us. So choose your friends well.  And choose your soul partners because they will tell you when you’re going down the wrong path, and they’ll keep telling you until you pay attention. You deserve to be treated right.
