I was not going to put myself in a position to suffer another verbal attack and so for the past 7 years, I have been polite if unfriendly and have avoided being around him. a month or so ago there was a family gathering and he gave me the most heartfelt apology I have ever received, that he had been wrong, that his life isn't what he thought it would be here in his 60s and he realizes that it's because of his own actions and things said and he really didn't want the estrangement between us to continue and we talked for quite a while. wow. and just like that, the rift was healed.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877731088554997649.post-3923521697127808752021-04-24T07:33:43.268-07:002021-04-24T07:33:43.268-07:00I love these two anecdotes.
