Love Will Keep Us Together

The last year of my life has, as life often does, brought a lot of introspection and new lessons to consider

Interesting use of the word "flawed". While I would concur that, as humans, we are inherently imperfect and 'flawed' in many ways, I may have favored simply "different" in some of the context here.

I'm sure it is not how you meant it, but when others treat people/relationships differently than you, that doesn't make them 'flawed' per se unless you believe your way is right and theirs is wrong.

Yeah, point taken, although as a whole I think the sentiment of the journal basically says that anyway.

I remember having some, lets call them... talks, with you about this. ;)
*hugs* I think that this perspective will yield a happier 'dile! :D

Heya Croc, well, an interesting perspective, I'm not sure that I've ever found a return when investing a lot of effort to be friends with someone, the folks that require lots of attention are like a pile of leaves in the wind, you turn around for a little while and they're all but gone. Yes its like riding the waves, and its a different wave for every friend, some folks are down in the troughs, they'd say high and perhaps sit for a cup of coffee or other casual social interaction, and some up on the crests would drop what they're doing, even cancel plans to come help you if you needed a hand. Sometimes without reminders and without contact, things fade over time. I still use that jack, a reminder of some good times.
