My Advice From Dimples

My buddy dimples gave me good advice about my crazy ex friend who decided to drop me an email to “rekindle” our friendship.  All of which I am not interested.  For one, I haven’t forgiven him yet, after 3 yrs.  It’s evident because my first reaction to his out of the blue email is, what the HELL is he doing emailing me!!!!

haha!  I guess that shows I’m still upset?  Dimples heard the story and she suggested that while I can perhaps look to forgive this person, it does not mean I have to be their friend, or tell them I’m forgiving them or have not forgiven them.  She has a good point.  I think I should though, forgive this person and basically go through the conscientious and deliberate act of making sure I have forgiven this person.  Even if I don’t rekindle our friendship.  At the end of the day, I also decided his email deserves a response.  I’m just going to let it simmer and write an email and also let it sink and soak in before I send it. My friend prayed for me and it was nice being prayed for.  I really appreciated it and realized it’s great having friends who can share spiritual experiences with and care about it too.
