People Come, People Go, Remembering Those Who Stood By Us

Sometimes all you have to do is think about someone and they show up. Unfortunately it’s usually not the someone you had hoped for. People fly in and out of our lives at rapid speeds coming and going like the wind.  Some stay a year, some a week, some long enough to read this post. Then there are the ones that are in it for the long haul. The ones who stick by you and not only help you sort your baggage but help carry the load as well. What makes someone stay in our lives? How do we have the power to keep them and is everything just up to chance or are we masters of our own fate’s?
