Have you ever been in a relationship, a friendship, with someone that you valued and then it all fell apart and you were left wondering what the heck happened?  I'm there right now. 

I had a friend, or so I thought, that was special.  We laughed and cried together, and provided an ear and support to each other.  That was a while ago.  I witnessed her anger once, directed at me.  I heard the hateful comments she said because I got sick and missed an appointment she had set up.  So, I did what I would like someone to do for me.  I confronted her about it.  Got it out and in the open, she apologized and I forgave.  We moved on, or so I thought.  Then there was distance as I moved on to a different company, and then started my own business.  I thought of her often and sent her love.

I had the opportunity for contact out of the blue one day so I took it.  Wow, slammed.  She wanted nothing to do with me and wouldn't even let me know why.  What hurt the most was that I could feel her anger, her frustration yet I honestly don't know why I was the target, nor what I had done to end the friendship.  Was I too honest?  Was I different (I chose a different path in my life than she chose in hers) and she wasn't able or willing to accept this?  I know I never talked behind her back even when others did.  I defended her and thought I was a good friend.  A loyal one.  But obviously I missed something blaringly obvious.  I'm sorry for that.

I wish for her the best.  I wish for her that all her dreams come true; prosperity continues to find her and her husband; she is always healthy and loved; and that her path is more and more blessed each day.  I send her light and love, and a huge thanks for the ear, the shoulder and the support she provided.  And...goodbye.
