making connections

Life is about making connections with people. You make a person feel special in a way they don’t get from others, they will always like you and value your friendship. At least that's what I have found personally. If you make someone feel respected and worthy of your time and you are genuinely interested in them they will be attracted to you and want to pursue your friendship further. They will gravitate towards you because they get something from you they crave. Each of us know we want to be special and we want to make something of ourselves, but who really supports us and who really takes time to believe in us and our dreams, for a lot of people it is only themselves. That is why having someone who looks at your freshly, without bias or judgment but sees you as your own opportunity for success is so important. I also think this doesn't come naturally to most people to treat others this way, I think for the most part we really are taught to be the center of our own universe. So it does take effort and it can feel strange or even fake when you are trying to make this change to be sincere and interested, but the end result is so worth it. When you know you've helped change someone's day, their outlook or just find a piece of themselves they had forgotten about it will be significant and you'll know it. I hope we all have a person like that in our lives and if you don’t and you need someone please come see me and I will tell you all the wonderful things about yourself you hopefully already know.
