Her birthday again

It’s that time of the year again … and it’s her birthday. How do I say it? How do I do justice to the truth in my feelings and convey the genuineness of my friendship. I could just call her and wish her the best year of her life. Can’t do that … she has changed her number. “Then e-mail her!” I hear someone yell at me. How could I email someone who deleted that entire email account specifically so I could not reach her?

Friendship gone sour … but in a very troublesome way. If given a second chance, there are certain things I would do differently … oh yes! definitely – but that’s IF given a second chance. You and I are intelligent enough to understand that life doesn’t give second chances. It only gives a chance to make things better. (Do I hear an ‘Amen’ out there?) So after 2 days of searching and looking and scraping the smallest corners of my hard-drive (interspersed with hours of nostalgic content – may I add!) I found her mailing address. A birthday card should do it right? Maybe a letter? Naah… just a consise, sincere, heartfelt birthday wish needs to be the focus today. Not me, or my apology.

Alright then, card sent. Wishing you a very Happy Birthday! May this coming year be your best and may you achieve all that you have strived for!

Would she get it? Has she moved in the time we last had contact? Wonder if she will open it knowing it’s from me. Think she would reply? … … Well, how does it matter. Goal was to wish her the very best. And that is done.

Rest is upto the power upstairs!
