When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
There are many different responses to crisis. Most survivors have intense feelings after a traumatic event but recover from the trauma; others have more difficulty recovering — especially those who have had previous traumatic experiences, who are faced with ongoing stress, or who lack support from friends and family — and will need additional help.

Hey Chris, you want to hear a good one?
My bike, after being totaled, was sold 5 months after I bought it from the insurance company. A friend turned me on to a guy he knew, looking for a "project bike" for the winter.
He did a pretty nice job getting it back on the road. He had not had a bike before & figured it was the cheapest way to get on a Harley Dresser. It was brought by our house to see, which was a little emotional for my wife & I.
I later heard that within weeks of having it on the road, he had the rear axel bolt break while riding down the road.
I had replaced the tire, brakes, & wheel bearing on the rear just a few short rides before being hit. It was only a week or so later that I rode it to work for the first time after, and the last time ever.
It's looking good, but it's kind of creepy looking back at what could have happened to him & I. He had torn it down completely, over the winter, and upon hitting the road tragidy almost struck again.
Anyway, you keep us posted on how your doing, OK ?
