I like your piece of feeling, so true. Our life is like a very long expat secondment. Friends come and leave but most important is that your have had enjoyrable time.
i been here for 7 yrs. I think have make this place as my home. Have my share fair of complaining about Doha ... but i have made a good life here too. I have made friends through various sites that i been regularly visits. And the past 2 yrs i have made tons of friends from here.
the sad bit ... i have seen my friends leaving all the time. You attached to them ... then one day they packed up and said 'bye bye' to you. Moving job, being transferred, terminated, Qatarize and all of those. Oh well ... I guess it comes with the package living as an expat.

Are Your Friends Here for a Reason, a Season, or a
Lifetime?
Anonymous
Many of us are fortunate enough to have friends who
are a consistent part of our lives throughout all our ups and downs. However,
sometimes others we consider friends appear to enter, then depart from
our lives for reasons we try to, but don't always, understand. This piece
nicely explains the flow of people in and out of our lives.
It is said that love is blind but
friendship is clairvoyant.
People come into your
life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which one
it is, you will know what to do for each person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it
is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist
you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to
aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a
godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to
be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part, or at an inconvenient time,
this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and
force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been
met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up
has been answered. And now it is time to move on.
Then people come into your life for a SEASON,
b ecause your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an
experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you
have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons:
things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have
learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
