Sometimes we "L" a friend deeper than we know. It is not until we lose them that we realize what they have meant to us. By loss I do not mean death...I mean hurt feelings. I have hurt someone not by intention, but by sheer stupidity. This stupidity leered its ugly head not too long ago and although I thought I could share a foreboding event, I could not. My friend's ears were closed as a previous wound (not made by me) was opened and made afresh and thus could not be dealt with. I should have known better as I knew the history. As a result, I was at a loss and my loss was great. We are speaking again, however, will forgiveness be forthcoming? I can only hope and say that "I forgot them in haste. You just brought a smile to this crying face." The papers are in the mail!
To shed tears you need emotion. The emotion is there. As a realist, I cannot deny what exists: to deny fact would be pure foolery! Sometimes things serve as grand reminders of our stupidity. I have faced my stupidity thus it has been recognized and conquered. Yes the "L" word has be elicited in total and pure friendship. - 4/14/06
