As one's consciousness and maturity evolves, they understand more and more about the reality and the essence of all things. This also happens when it comes to human relations and other people that we have in our lives.
Over time, especially when one is younger, they might either go into a lot of isolation or over-socialization. Both have their upsides and downsides. Yet the fundamental reality is that in our lives, we tend to have some people who are key and integral in our existence. It's important to cherish these people, help them achieve their dreams and promote them.
Another thing that happens a lot during this time, is that there is a lot of fakeness around. Fakes left and right, and people always having some sort of "agenda". One must learn to deal with this on it's own level and understand to not waste unnecessary time or resources to what is fake, since what is fake, is essentially a sinkhole of time, energy, resources and whatever else under the sun. Being close to what is fake and non-essential for someone, has a lot of risks, and all these risks will hit the person who does the "giving" in such interpersonal relations.
People aren't fake because they don't in particular follow what one needs 24/7 of the time. But people are fake when they pretend with other intentions in mind. This is easy to locate and past a point in your spiritual journey, it will be clear as day. One must learn to manage these people in life and make sure to get only as involved as needed.
Now speaking of true friends and true people in life, these are people who will be there for you, support you, guide you and be present when you need them the most. The fakes will do the opposite; be there only on the "good times", disappear on the bad times, avoid any form of mutual building, strife or suffering, and merely issue parasitical demands or be around "just for the sake of it". These people will run out and the result is that one might have nobody to depend on.
Lastly, speaking of human relations, I have found many people are true and solid in this world. Yet, the most solid relationship one can have, is actually with the Gods and those who understand them well; since this is a whole level of different existence. When we talk here about Family, this is not done in a light-hearted manner, it's done to explain the fundamental goal and reality beneath the surface of all of this. Family, means support.
Over the years, I saw that my people here were with me in any and all days; better or worse, and I was there for them the same. This was not the case for regular outsiders, who oscillate between nothingness and stupidity - yet that doesn't mean they are evil, just incapable. When one relates to the Gods, they undergo profound transformation that can help someone foster more meaningful relationships. These people don't have access to this. They are limited to what they know.
Learning to recognize the Truth of the Gods also helps someone tremendously in understanding the same when it comes to human beings. Use this knowledge in your journey as a guiding light to be with those that matter and the real ones. To matter, is not an external situation only that relates to life. It's an internal situation of having realness in you. When one emanates the force of Satya, they become more and more real.
