The People You Need In Your Life... No man is an island, as the saying goes, and it’s true. No matter how strong and capable we are as individuals, it’s the other people in our lives that we share our experiences with that make our lives whole and give them meaning. You certainly don’t need to be in a relationship to be happy, but if these are the people you need in your life to be the best version of yourself and live a happy and complete life: ~Those who we can cry to. We all need a shoulder to cry on from time to time, no matter how tough and independent we are. Even if you don’t ever actually cry to them, just knowing that you have someone there for you that you can turn to is a huge comfort. Knowing that someone is there for you when times are tough helps you feel supported and reminds you that you’re never alone, no matter how bad things get. ~Those who pep us up. When we’re stuck in a rut, down in the dumps, or just feeling bad about ourselves, we all need a friend who is there to help shake us out of our funk and help get us back on our feet. Some people are just natural optimists and these people are great cheerleaders, always there to help us shake the dust off and boost our moods so we feel ready to tackle life’s challenges. They make us see that things aren’t as bad as we think and that we are strong enough to handle whatever life throws at us. ~Those who love us unconditionally. We all need someone in our life who loves us no matter how badly we screw up. No one is exempt from making bad decisions, being embarrassed, or experiencing hard times, and when life gets tough we see who our true friends are. Many people will abandon us when we’re down and out, but certain friends or family members love us unconditionally. Having their constant support means that we always have someone in our corner, no matter what. ~Those who inspire. The people who inspire us might not even be people that we know. They might be celebrities, professional athletes, business leaders, or philanthropists that we will never meet, but the point is that we all need people that we look up to and aspire to be like. These people give us direction, motivation, and a sense of purpose that we can focus on. They help us daydream about what we want our lives to be like and help us set goals to make those dreams a reality. ~Those who keep us grounded. We all need friends and family that know the real us, who we can just “be” with without having to be on our a-game, or whom we don’t have to impress and entertain. These are the people we can totally relax and be ourselves with. They know and love the real us. They help keep us grounded because we know that no matter how much our happiness, success, or our plans for our lives go up or down they will always be there as a constant in our lives. They’ll never let our egos get overinflated or let us pretend to be someone we aren’t. ~Those who challenge us. Some people in life just push our buttons. Although it seems like we could really live without these people in our lives, they are actually great to have around. They irk and irritate us, but more importantly, they challenge us. Having someone that challenges you is what keeps you on your toes and helps you to keep growing, changing, and striving to be your best. Being challenged means we won’t get complacent, lazy, or sluggish. Even though these people can be irritating to us, they are actually a great influence on our motivation. ~Library for Kinksters PHOTO TAKEN BY: ME "Men need to hunt. She obviously understands this.

A wise man once wrote that you want people in your life who want the best for you, not those who will try to convince you to be as unhappy as they are. Best, RB Happy New Year to you.

There is a difference between the love of your life and your soul mate . . One is a choice, the other isn't. They are just there when you need them. "Men need to hunt. She obviously understands this. She’s offering herself as prey. Not easy prey. But willing.”

So very true. And when you find someone who fills one of these categories, cherish them. No need to try to cling to them, just make yourself aware that they are really important to you. If you find someone who fills more than one of these, love them, with every fiber of yourself, they are worth your time manifold. And you posted a very beautiful picture. It look like magic. Thank you. On the beach that morning it was beautiful. The photo barely does it justice. "Men need to hunt. She obviously understands this. She’s offering herself as prey. Not easy prey.
