A few things about friends
It's really hard to see bad things happen to your friends. Something bad happened to two of my friends in the last two days and it sucks. One of them, however, had a trillion people backing her up PUBLICLY because what was said was COMPLETELY BOGUS. It sucks that some people would go so far as to do the things they do, but in the end I have to chuckle because everyone essentially gathered 'round and told the person why their statements were wrong, why they shouldn't have said it, and basically tore APART their every word and in the end, there was not even a SHRED of validity to their statement.
You know who you are, and it's amazing and not at all surprising that so many people jumped in and told them how it is.
Another friend had some pretty nasty things said about her and in a sense she faced public humiliation because of it. Some of the things that were said about were HARSH and all were UNTRUE. It makes me so mad that someone would say those things about her, but you can't control people. That said, she, like the previously mentioned friend, took it gracefully like a true lady and handled herself well.
You know who you are, and we all know that crap isn't true. It will take me a long time to be able to stop feeling a bit of resentment towards those people.
To you, who should be named, REBECCA, lost 100 pounds, and I haven't seen her in person in years. I saw her photos and OMG she looks SO BEAUTIFUL. Her outsides match her insides.
Another friend has a grandmother in the hospital, dying. Prayers.
