Some People Are My Priorities, Others Are Options

There comes a time in your life when you need to know what is an option and what is a priority in your life. You’ll always have a bunch of options in your life, but sometimes it seems not enough priorities.
It’s my freshman year and I am looking for positive people to enter in and be a part of my life. These people will become priorities.
Options don’t mean nothing because there comes a point in your life when they will leave. Most of the time, options are just with you to pass the time.
Priorities are people like family, friends, and well technically people who are close to you, and will be with you for a lifetime.
But sometimes unfortunately family members are better as options, or so it seems.
Priorities are what you make them, but they should be the ones who you care for and they care for in return. Your priorities should matter and not be an option. You should not make someone your priority when you’re just an option to them.
God and my family are priorities that come first to me and then everything else. I’m also my own priority and fortunately a priority to other people as well.
