I copied and pasted my last paragraph to notes on facebook. AND the result? I managed to gain back a friendship I had lost many years back. Way before during first year of Uni, I had lost this friendship and I have just regained it.
Trust me, at first I took offence with the friend’s remarks, but later I later realised she was open to my ideas. She is an Arts student. Don’t art students have this way of speaking english without actually speaking it you know what I mean? Like a totally different language altogether. Like you know singlish? Its english and yet its a different form of english? A british will not understand it? But its all cool. And why can’t everyone be like her? I mean, I have my opinion, you have yours. We agree to disagree.
I am going to try and keep the postings from henceforth as happy as possible, but if I happen to be negative. Close one eye, or maybe both eyes.
Personal Contentment, peace with myself. Let the healing continue.
PS: Thanks well wisher for your comments and well wishes, I have left replies to them.
PPS: With the olympics, now I have something all the time. Goes off to switch on the TV.
PPPS: I LOVE KITE RUNNER, THE BOOK!

One needs to train one’s mind to entertain a conflicting opinion without actually accepting it. Then you can be harmonious in any difficult situation.
That was my paraphrasing from a paper I read long time ago.
Am very glad your friendship is renewed.
Great day to you.
