Do They Really Have Your Best Interest?

Everybody that smiles in your face, does a kind deed or provides a good time is not always out for your best interest. While their acts of deception lead you to believe that they have love for you their intent is motivated by selfishness. Love is not self seeking but is genuinely concerned with the well being of other people. 

The people that pretend to love you are nice to you as long as they are getting their way but the moment a problem arises their fear of being deprived of what they desire will turn into a rage. They seek self satisfaction at all cost. They want what they want when they want it and it doesn't matter who they hurt, it doesn't matter what conflict they cause because it's all about them. If they don't get exactly what they're after they will settle for seeing you suffer. Out of spite they become harmful, they want to annoy you, frustrate you or humiliate you. 

This type of person is dangerous. Their controlling spirit can ruin your life if you let them. They will influence you to make decisions that are contrary to what's best for you. It's alarming because they can be so cunning and manipulative you don't even know what is happening. If you're not careful you'll be trapped in their web facing a bite of poisonous venom. 

Be watchful of the company you keep. Be careful of those you allow to impact your life. Guard your heart and your mind make sure the people who surround you have your best interest.
