Once friends, I never told you how to live your life a way, or put down what you do or say because it was only my opinion and I kept it to myself, a person has a right to feel what they want. Once friends, I never told you how boring your diary has become, the same thing written over and over again. I simply read and nodded my head, offering a hug now and then. Some just like to be alone sometimes. Once friends, I never told you how you were pushing me away from you, in being so judgemental of me when you really have no clue. A poem begins with a lump in the throat. ~Robert Frost [This message has been edited by passing shadows (12-09-2006 09:23 AM).] |

This poem made me sad. Only because I know what it is like to have to push a friend away because i was not living my life through her eyes. A great friend will tell you your downfalls and extend their hand to help pick you up. |

Ouch. Dixie, I hope all is well. Truth can certainly hurt and should not always be told. And yet...  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

I thank everyone some friends can be the greatest experts on things they've never encountered for themselves, and they really don't understand life through another's eyes or words, but they judge anyhow, and what makes it worse is that their own lives aren't exactly peachy... though not meaning to hurt, sometimes they do sad indeed |

Dixie, once in a while we just outgrow each other. No one grows within another's judgmental eyes. Time to just walk away. You Are Loved |
