For everything there is a season.  This also applies to friendships.  Some of the people that come into our lives are only there for a season or two, and then they’re gone.  Some come and stay for many seasons, many years, and still, in the end, leave us.  Others, a select few, are that stalwart bunch that hang in there for life.  Regardless of which one they do, Read the rest of this entry ?
