@sahilbloom: This idea from Tyler Perry that changed my life… There are three types of people in your life: Leaves, Branches, and Roots. Which type of friend are you?

IntheWilburness :

Then there is the pollen. They make you sick

👹 :

I’m always the roots and I don’t really get that in return. Only my mom. 😭

Shell :

Roots get fewer as you get older

Jessica Wear :

I have no roots

Shalise :

My husband is my root

⭐️Roger Buckz 🏳️‍🌈 :

I need to find my roots friends

John Jr :

Good analogy

IntraPreneurX :

Leaves, branches and roots is a brilliant way to stop expecting the same thing from everyone. Appreciating the leaves for their season takes a lot of pressure off.

Ancient history :

People are with you for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Don’t be too quick to discount the reason and season people. If the memory isn’t sweet, what did they teach you? Just bc we move on doesn’t mean that they didn’t bring you joy when it was needed.

shaunloveselissa :

You’re assuming a lot to think I have three friends.

BeeLovings :

Was this analogy apart of a Tyler Perry movie years ago!?

Two Men No Boarders :

Love this

kitykat2498 :

Is t that from Tyler Perry’s Madea video?

PiperNoOya :

It’s a reason, a season or for life.

sllybnz :

Hmmmm "Roots" are so hard to find in my opinion. I learn to accept people and set boundaries.

Kevin ADHD Founder :

the branches part is so real, you find out who those are the second you lean on them

jp :

Good analogy

rowdyj :

Kevin Bracken :

Tess :

suerosejoseph :

Unfortunately my kids learned this at vulnerable points in their lives.

jacky.jj2 :

My question is can I find all 3 in one friend?

Mich.a.fordk :

Hahaa, I have like 2 roots, one is my Daughter
