| Did you ever wish that M&M'S came in pistachio shells? |
Do you ever wish that things were different?
Do you ever wish that you fit in better?
Do you ever wish that people were kinder and more accepting?
Do you ever wish that the moon was full every night?
{oh sorry, I could not help myself. Smile}
This past weekend I had the opportunity
to read on Facebook what a group of women
felt about another person who had unfriended them.
At first I thought that I was in a high school bathroom,
eavesdropping on girls gossiping.
Their comments were sarcastic and bitter.
My heart raced. My ears rung.
Don't they know that even on Facebook,
you have to be a friend to have a friend?
We live in an age where communications are so easy.
Everything can be done from your desk.
Happy Birthday's, Get Wells and Happy Anniversary's
are just an email away.
We do not have to make any effort at all.
Have we reduced the term friendship?
Defining it by how many friends we have on a Facebook list?
My experience is simple.
In real life, facebook or anywhere else.
If you want to be my friend, BE my friend.
Do not take me for granted or play games with me.
If not...
I am not confrontational, I just go away.
It is how I handle being hurt by someone that I care about.
I just go away.
To the ladies posting on Facebook,
did you personally contact the person to see if she was OK?
{no}
How long did it take you to discover the person was gone?
{over a month or never, is not good}
Instead of being angry at the person for unfriending you,
have you asked yourself what you might have done?
{from your comments, I am guessing no}
If you answered NO to one or more of these questions,
Perhaps you are not the kind, wonderful, friend you thought you were.
You might have noticed that I posted answers for you under each question.
How could I be so callous?
It is because you were talking about ME.
I saw it, I read it, and it is because of actions like that,
you proved that you were really never a friend.

Love you,
Me
