An End

I usually believe strongly in the power of forgiveness and that a healing process can occur over time.

However, on rare occasions things are said or done that are utterly unforgivable and cannot be taken back or forgotten, no matter how much any of the parties concerned may wish it. When that happens it is final.

You can only tidy up the threads, sear the wounds shut and move on with your separate lives.

A Failed Friendship

For several weeks now, I have been mulling over a friendship that ended disastrously. What went wrong? Could I have said or done some thing differently to stop this from ending with unfriending, blocking, muting and banning?

I am getting nowhere and am just winding around in circles, most likely because the breakup is still too close in time or that I am too involved and unable to be objective in my inquiry. It simply hurts too much to think about it. Nonetheless I blame myself for the failure.

Every failed friendship should be followed by an autopsy of sorts to establish when, where and how everything went totally wrong, so that we can learn and avoid the same pattern from occurring again.

I may return to this subject in the future, but for now it seems pointless. All I know is that, to paraphrase the Roxette song, "there must have been love, but its over now". A residue of the love we had still remains and a hope - at least on my part - that somehow this will not be the end.

Conversation on Facebook

I hadn't been on Facebook for a while, and about ten minutes after I logged on I had this wonderful conversation. (Spelling errors have been corrected.)

I did not see any point in continuing the conversation, so I liked every post and comment this person had made that I could find and then jumped off Facebook.
