Top 5 Relationships You Should Have When Finding Yourself.

Do you ever have a problem and wonder who you should talk to, and that wouldn't betray your trust? 
Do you find yourself thinking about an imaginary list of people to call, if only you felt comfortable trusting them with your heart and the feelings and emotions that run through it? If so, you may be ready to examine the 5 relationships you should have while finding yourself and now is the time to create the list.
The relationship list should include:
-Yourself 
- God, the father{He will introduce you to his entourage }
- Your parents
- Great people who encourage you, pray with you and often tell you when you are missing the mark. (they could be grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, coaches, neighbors or people you may encounter only once)
- Siblings ( often times they are on the journey with you or they have a great insight on life) 
The reason why it is important to do this, is because you need to know who can help you become who you are destined to become. The disclaimer is you must put the work in. You must work on you, first!
How? One way to learn what you like and dislike is to take field trips with yourself. Go to the library or bookstore and read the latest magazines or chapters in certain books and don't be afraid to read something out of the norm. Read something that will challenge your thinking. The worst thing that could happen is you may enjoy 
it :-).
Take notice of the relationship with your parents. If you only know one, work on your relationship with that one. Ask yourself if you are you trying to find a common ground with your them? Maybe you can bake some cookies and eat them in bed with them, while chit chatting or while sitting on the couch drinking some cold milk. Cookies and milk are so relaxing plus it brings your defenses down.
If you want to know God, you can spend some time learning about him and who he is to you. You may inquire to what his voice sounds like or what makes him smile or why you created.
Some of the best relationships are made between siblings. I guess it is an unspoken bond that happens in the heavens. When your brother or sister performs well, do you take notes on their accomplishment and congratulate them? If they are locked up, do you write them letters just to let them know that they are in your thoughts?
Relationships are inevitable . The point I want you remember is, to build lasting relationships during your journey of life because you will always be growing and changing. The key is to have conversations with those persons listed and grow into the loving, considerate,awe-inspiring; you!
