Who is the most important person in your life? What could you do to improve the relationship? Will you ever do it?
I usually judge the most important person in my life based on how much money they give me. And no one has really given me any money lately, so the position is currently open. If you are interested in being the most important person in my life, you can find me on Venmo.
Just kidding. About the money part. Thinking of a most important person, though, I don’t think there is one. I almost feel like, making that kind of claim about someone is quantifying my relationships. I don’t have a tendency to rank the people in my life on a scale of importance to me.
Do you? Who’s the most important person in your life? Let me know in the comments!

My first thought was to say Jesus. But that isn’t true. It SHOULD be true, but I am still a work in progress. Then I started to think about my family. They are all equally important (I mean my nuclear family of husband, 3 kids and 3 grandchildren. And then there have been people, such as colleagues, church members,etc over the years who have been very important to me for a time period. But they move away, I find differences or behaviors that push them further back on the list, or they find things about me that are obnoxious and put me further back on the list.
This question is too hard.
