“Flourish: To grow or develop in a healthy or vigorous way, especially as the result of a particularly favorable environment.” There are a lot of observations I could take away from that definition. What stood out to me reading it today was that flourishing is the result of a favorable environment. We all are affected by our environment negatively & positively, even when we might not realize it. Some of the factors are out of our control. Others, we choose. We can choose to have a friend group that either tells us the hard truth even when it’s painful to hear, or pick ones who tells us we’re “all good” when the opposite is true. We have the ability to choose if our lives will flourish based upon what we bring into our inner circle. How will you be intentional about flourishing?
