As if what's happening isn't bad enough, it has to get worse!
Angel is sick again. She has fever and I haven't got a clue why!
She wasn't rained on. No reason for her to catch fever! What could have caused it this time?! Now, she has to be absent again from school.
Of course, I would take care of her. I just hope the one day rest would do her good. Angel doesn't want being absent from school.
... and I thought that was for the day... but I was wrong, DEAD WRONG!
While waiting for her to wake up, I was doing a task from Blogvertise, and I was very much delighted because it couldn't come at a more appropriate time.
Guess what happened?
After writing the post, as I was about to submit my article, instead of clicking on the "Accept" button, I clicked on the "Decline" button!
Imagine that?!
and I was fully awake and alert at that!
I just threw a good $10 out the window!
... and it really has to get worse!

When friends judge friends
Friendship is a rare commodity for me. Not because there aren’t enough friendly people, but because I really find it hard to open up… and be one.
That is why when I called someone a friend, I mean it.
I have an idealistic view of friendship, which I believe isn’t really healthy for me. I am deeply affected whenever there’s a rift in the relationship.
It hurts most when friends judge you.
Not for what you did or did not do, but for what they PERCIEVED you did.
You think that as a friend they would come to you upfront and get it straight from you.
I knew I would do that. Friendship is at stake… friendship that I value so much.
But they have no idea of what you went out to do for them. They didn't know... they don't have to.
Friends don't keep score.
Maybe we really have different views, perspective and approach when it comes to friendship and being a friend.
Like I said, I have a very idealistic view when it comes to friendship… and I value it so much.
I don’t betray friends…
Not even if my life depends on it.

the wooden cane
a piece of wood... lifeless
but strong and useful
to the young mind... it disciplines
to the aged... it gives strength
to the sightless... it guides
the wooden cane...
lifeless... yet, it cares

*a poem a wrote when after a visit at the church, I met an old couple on my way out... the woman was holding on to his husband, while the man was holding on to his walking stick as he guides his wife...
