Why Certain People are in Your Life

We love some people in our life—and others not so much. This card from James Van Praagh's The Soul's Journey Lesson Cards explains that each one of our relationships serves a purpose on our soul's journey.

Relationships: I am attracted to those people who serve my higher good.

In this three-dimensional world in which we live, there is a sense that we are separate from one another and also that we meet by chance. This is an illusion. The people in our lives are drawn to us and are here for a reason. It is through sharing experiences and having relationships with others that we begin to understand ourselves. 

When someone appears in your life, you must see what is not resolved or whole in the person and understand the lessons he or she brings home to you. You draw others to you like magnets, in order to learn various aspects of yourself. The people you have close relationships with on Earth are usually members of your soul family. You have chosen to incarnate together to help each other learn lessons—even though it may not seem that way to you now. Once a lesson is learned, don't be surprised if that person fades away. People are in your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.
