off topic! Friendship Letter!

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

I just wanted to let you all know that I'm back. I've been gone for

a while and did miss all of you very much. I thought about each and

every one of you every day.

When your away from friends for a while sometimes you have a lot of

time to really think about your relationship with them. That's just

what I did while I was away. Too many times we don't say the things

we need to say in order to keep that friendship strong.

So for me I would like to say: For one since I've been away it made

me realize how much friendships mean to me. I have truely missed

each and every one of you. Second, I would like to say that if for

any reason I have ever said anything in the past that hurt someones

feelings or made them feel uncomfortable in any way I am very, very

sorry.

Sometimes we say things we shouldn't and don't even realize it until

way later. So I ask for all of your forgiveness if I have done

this. Third, I would like to welcome all new members, I know that

you will find this is a wonderful place to be. And, finally, I just

want to tell each and every one of you that without you I would be

lost and I didn't realize it until I was gone from you.

I wish for all to have much less pain and only good days ahead.

Your friend,

Carol
