Maybe I'm too sensitive, or too considerate. But there are certain things that should not be overlooked. I'm talking about things in the lives of the people that you love.
A friend that has lost a parent or both parents; a friend that has lost a baby, or had to make a choice not to have a baby; a friend that is ill, or has a family member that is seriously ill; a friend that has just had her heart broken...
Friends reach out to each other to cry, to talk, to complain, to vent, even to sob, about all of the obstacles that crop up in life. It is trust. Releasing that emotion onto another person requires trust in that person. And sometimes I hear this event being recalled by the person it has been confided in, in a careless manner. Violating the unspoken tie of trust. So be careful.
Think twice. Be considerate.
