Who's in your village?

According to wikipedia, a Village is pretty much a Community of people concentrated in one place.
I would add to this "people concentrated with one purpose".

We all have a village.  In some cases that village encourages us to achieve our dreams and live out our purpose.  In some cases that village hinders us from moving forward.

Without bragging too much, I must say that I've been blessed with a golden village.  A group of people who stand beside me no matter what.  They encourage me to be the best version of me, but accept me as I am.  They celebrate my ups and comfort my downs.  They're truly the reason why I'm still standing.

So today, I want to thank you, my village, for being always there.  Thank you for your words, prayers, and for holding up my arms when my strength is not enough to do it on my own.  It truly has "taken a village" for me to get here.

So think about this... Who's in your village?  Have you let people in it that are not aligned with you and your purpose?  People that add no value to your life?  People that disempower you?
If that's the case, it's not too late!  Seek direction, and when you feel led to, give them an eviction notice, secure the gates and be vigilant!  


Before you know it, you too will have a golden village.  

Peace,
Milca
