Wow! I can just say my heart TRULY feels you! <br /><br />It's amazing the dynamics we have with people. It's amazing that sometime's as you grow you literally CAN'T stay around some people. Not because you don't love them but because to do such will keep you stuck... Low... <br /><br />I like what you said "surrounding yourself with people of higher vibrations"... Yeah that! LOL! <br /><br />Anyway blessings to you! Keep on your journey girl! I know I am ready to take off on mine!Raquiiba Bolton-Daweshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17909157143250059191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-26531637526527551382010-07-26T10:01:29.286-07:002010-07-26T10:01:29.286-07:00ok, how about I was only looking at the damn pix a...ok, how about I was only looking at the damn pix and didn't read the blog.... very well said!!

I have never been one to hold on to friends that were negatively impacting my life. For a while I thought I had gotten rid of the non "true friends", until recently it came to my attention that someone that was close to me that possessed all of the negative components you mentioned (Jealousy, greed, and competition) and then some and am currently in the process of transitioning out of that situation. This came right on time!Stephahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12480891126378789436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-52163937412578246782010-07-24T12:28:40.407-07:002010-07-24T12:28:40.407-07:00i never posted on your blog before but i LOVE your...i never posted on your blog before but i LOVE your hair, LOVE your blog and this one in particular was very valuable. i went through a similar metamorphasis, shedding old relationships that were draining. my circle got a bit smaller but some new, healthy energy was able to come in and i'm happier!! stay fabulous girl!luvmylocsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-12473546955580412572010-07-23T11:22:34.014-07:002010-07-23T11:22:34.014-07:00Thanks so much for your openness...I can really at...Thanks so much for your openness...I can really attest to your "cleansing" as a testament to my own moves in life.

I think most people struggle with this. In time, friends do reveal themselves, or it perhaps it could be that you have started to grow as a person, and you are now unable to see this friend as you once did. I often ask myself now "Why did I hang out with this person?" or "What did I see in her that made me like her?" <br /><br />I too have been trying to change things around in my life. I want to start living for myself and explore things that make ME happy. And with that, I have lost a few friends, but in the process, gained soooo much more. I've learned how to love my myself. <br /><br />BTW- you're quite the fly one lol.

This is a topic that I struggle with. I am trying to revise, reclaim and recharge my own life. From time to time I wonder who will still be in my life when I come out of the other side on this. Your post just confirms for me what I already knew. Friends complement who and where you are in your life. Anyone who is trying to prevent your personal growth is not truly a friend!!LaToyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-91536009457366739042010-07-22T07:04:59.112-07:002010-07-22T07:04:59.112-07:00Love it thanks for sharing Nikole!

I also lost friends that I had anywhere between 2-10 years because we were growing differently. Some didn't want to be apart of my dream or vision, some wanted to recieve support and never give any, some couldnt tell you the definition of a friend if they tried.. of course I was distraught but now I chose to surround myself with people with my best interest in mind. There is nothing like a healthy positive friendship.<br /><br />xx<br />josie<br />www.straightNOchase.comjosie reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07539248866918902322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-83403456894501705792010-07-21T15:07:43.843-07:002010-07-21T15:07:43.843-07:00Your outfit is so hot, and I love going to the ROX...Your outfit is so hot, and I love going to the ROXY to hear live music, it beats the weird music they put on the radio.
