Did you care?

Did you notice she had gone?

Hadn't written for so long?

Realise something was wrong?

Did you even care?

Did you want to share?

Did you want to hear?

What were her fears?

Include her in your prayers?

Did you just delete her from your friends?

Let another friendship end.?

What support did you lend?

Her mail box was filled with mail from you

You ask her to

join,

comment,

read.

To do another task.

But did you ever ask

How was her day?

Ask her to have a say.

Too late now to

Care

Be there

Offer prayers

She's gone.

Sad, but sometimes deleting someone from your friends is necessary for your own sanity. Some people constantly hounding for attention. Some people cause extreme problems. Some people you can do all you can for and they still aren't satisfied. It doesn't leave much choice but to delete them from your friends.

This is sad, Bernadette. But I have a different take from that of Cal. It never hurts to remember to say, Hi! - what we give we receive, and thus the Golden Rule of doing unto others is a wise one ... and it is in our own best interests to live by that rule.

I'm featuring this in the Chat & Connections Garden Cafe.
