Convenient - suitable or agreeable to the needs or purpose; well-suited with respect to facility or ease in use; favorable, easy, or comfortable for use.
Do you have acquaintances that make you feel as if they only fraternize with you when it is convenient for them? If you are unable to discern, now is as good a time as any to check for warning signs. Do you have a friend who you only hear from when he is in need of a favor? Perhaps you have a relative who only comes around when her money is funny because she knows you'll provide for her. Authentic relationships are reciprocal in nature. If within a given friendship you notice that you are rarely the recipient of generosity, then clearly you need to revisit the definition of friendship. Indications are that you're being manipulated. One very popular proverb states "to whom much is given, much is required." Today, I beckon you to require just as much effort from your loved ones as you expend. The situation doesn’t necessarily need to be “tit for tat”, but these free-loading loved ones must be held accountable within the relationship as well. That’s right, I said it! Stand firmly for something or fall for anything. Be blessed.
