Circle of Influence

We've all laughed at the circle of trust in the movie 
Meet the Parents.
But did you realize that you have a circle of influence?
You are impacted by the people you hang around with.
Your actions, words, thoughts, inactions, beliefs...
They

're all influenced by the people around you.
I heard of one study that found people are the
average of their 5 closest friends.
They looked at incomes and health among other things.

I remember Dad calling me out on something a teenager.
I said - 'how do you know?"
He said - 'I see who you hang out with.'

Your circle of influence says a lot about who you
are as a person.

Just sayin'...

My 'knowing' friend

"The best kind of friends, Is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, Never say a word,And then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had." Unknown 




 That kind of 'knowing' relationship; the acceptance, relating to, commonalities of thought process, similar wave length - what an awesome bond! 




It's forged from love, patience, time, repetition, support, giving and sharing! 




Just can't put a price on something like that! All the money in the world can't buy you a bond like that, it must first be established, then nourished, until flourished!
