Chasing After You

I'm not a fan of chasing after anyone to get them to be with you. If somebody doesn't want to be with you by choice, let them go. I don't understand how a person can chase after somebody, going through hoops just to get their affection. That's crazy to me, but it happens. We're grown (some of us at least) so the adult thing to do is move on. Find someone that wants to be with you for YOU. If I'm with a woman and she wants to walk out on me, that's her perogative. You won't catch me running her down and begging her to stay with me. I have too much pride for that. I think people need to be secure within themselves that they can live without a man or woman in their lives. This comes from loving yourself deeply and knowing what you want. It's usually a blessing if someone walks out on you because they show you who they really are; they could have character flaws that are one of your dealbreakers and if you stay with them, could you overlook their faults? When someone walks out of your life, it doesn't necessarily mean they're bad people, it means that their part in your story is done. Some people are meant to be in your life for a season, others are forever. Chasing after someone that's seasonal signals that you're holding onto something that's just not meant for you. That's how people miss out on their blessing because they don't know how to let go and accept the sometimes, inevitable losses of life.
