I owe this entry to a good friend of mine, a friend of 15 years. As I don't mention names in my blog, so let's just call her Ms. Lee.
Anyway, we had a conversation sometime last week about a friend of ours, who used to be pretty close to us, especially to Ms. Lee. However, now she seemed to be avoiding us, well, that's how we feel at least.
It doesn't really bother me since we only keep in touch once in a while, but for Ms. Lee, I kinda feel for her, since they have been pretty good friends for the past few years. It all started when Ms. Lee left the country for a year. She came back sometime last year and until today, Ms. Lee has never gotten the chance to meet up with this friend of ours. Ms. Lee has made several attempts to get in touch with her; in fact more than enough times if you ask me, but she didn't pick up her calls nor did she answer her msgs on Facebook etc.
She did answer her call once, and told Ms. Lee that she was busy and would return her call back. But the call never came.
Why do some people turn out this way?
But giving the benefit of doubt, we assumed that she was having some personal problems and that she didn't want to be around people or specifically around her schoolmates. But then again, we just found out that she turned up for several weddings of our ex-schoolmates and we also found out that she's pregnant! And this was from a girl she was never close with at school, or even after.
I dunno. Isn't good news like this would want to share with your best friends?
Ms.Lee, I know you've done your part to keep the friendship alive. But if the other party doesn't intend to do so, don't stress yourself too much. You know you still have friends who care for you :)
We all lose friends.. we lose them in death, to distance and over time. But even though they may be lost, hope is not. The key is to keep them in your heart, and when the time is right, you can pick up the friendship right where you left off. Even the lost find their way home when you leave the light on." ~ Amy Marie Walz
