loose ends

About a month ago I received a text message from an old friend. It was five words "I owe you an apology." My response was "No worries, the door is always open here."

And that was it...she never responded, never elaborated.

Time has passed and I have started to wonder if the apology was more for herself than it was for me. And I started to wonder if, when someone calls you after a lengthy time of not speaking because they feel as though YOU have things you need to say, if it really means that THEY have things they need to say...because if there was something that I needed to say that badly, I would have already said it.

These gestures may seem genuine, but in reality are just self serving because they did not take into account, the way I would be impacted by them.
