Ripe for Happiness

No question about it -- you have what it takes to get the most out of your friendships and to GIVE the most too! Sounds like you have learned the secret of balance. Giving and taking in equal measures is something you are very familiar with in your life. You probably have even discovered that sometimes you spend a lot of time giving and then later when you need it, others give to you. Or visa versa.

Your joy is able to shine through because you don't sit around and worry that you are going to be thrown out like so much garbage! It's not that you think you are the hottest thing in town. Rather it's that you know the value of caring about people. You know the value of being there for others and the security of having them there for you when you need them.

You are a lucky lucky girl. Some humans don't learn this lesson during their entire stay on Earth. Others seem to be born with this knowledge. Still others have to learn the hard way. And some girls have to talk to themselves in the bathroom mirror. (See Ready to Compost above.)

Well, just keep at it. Focus on the most important parts of your friendships and relationships, the nurturing and care that you give to each other. Walk away from any relationship that doesn't evolve into this dynamic. It takes time to get to know someone well and to trust them completely. But you know right away when someone makes you feel uncomfortable. Keep following your heart. It knows where to go.
