This is part of a message an NN-friend sent me today:
"I think you have been very harsh on Tanja by not hearing her side of the story. It is not the right thing to do to a friend, all you had to do was exclude her from your Thursday night arrangement. You should not have been so heavy handed with her.
Hugs"
It made me think - as in a few minutes I will go over to Elsie and Joerg. It's going to be awkward today without Tanja and in one-piece bathing-suits, but that is Elsie's arrangement. I found one after turning some drawers upside down, and it is canary-yellow, of all colours.
But I love messages like the one above, it is good to have an objective outside view of one's life, so I have promised my friend to phone Tanja in the next few days and talk to her. Maybe I was a little too harsh with her.
Now off I go - to be bubbled over.
