For a Reason

They say everything happens for a reason,
People come into your life at the exact moment you need them, some stay for ever, some for a while , some even more briefly.
It doesn't matter how long they stay everyone of them make an impact in some significant way.
 Maybe they helped you get strong for a situation or move on from one. 
 Maybe they shared a big life experience or played a big role in a small one.
 It could of just been that smile that you needed as they walked past you on the street.
Either way when they turn up it always happens for a reason .
When they go it can feel really sad like someone has died, or when they are ready to go sometimes you don't want them to so you hold on to them not willing for them to go.
 Confusing your feelings of gratitude and love for something bigger.
 Until suddenly one day you realise they might be there in body but there soul left long before.
That's when it goes from love to dependency. It's not that they don't love you it's just that their soul has stayed too long, as it more than likely was meant to be somewhere else. But you loved them and didn't want them to go and somehow urged them to stay.
You will know when that time comes, when that spark isn't sparking, when there's no more talking, or making plans together for the future.
 When you wake up in the morning no kiss or cuddle and your days are spent seperate not together like in the beginning. 
 When togetherness is sitting in silence both minds wandering thinking of different things. No "guess what's" or talks of everything that happened in the day. 
 Sadly eventually leading into "You didn't tell me that", or "Your invited by the way".
So when that soul and yours don't connect anymore it's time to say thankyou and let that soul go on its way. 
Because remember there are no coincidences in life, they were in your life when you needed them to be.
So let them free, You both have new things awaiting for you...  that will happen exactly when and where and with who it's ment to be with.
Basically everything works out in the end and it always "happens for a reason".
