The...Friendship can break your heart; so can grief. The imaginings, the what-ifs, the laughter underwriting the pain--all of that is captured so well, and in great complement to the casual tone of the piece.Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05407917830307384493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6105870530641515642.post-54794458809324982052011-09-16T21:18:56.404-05:002011-09-16T21:18:56.404-05:00Nancy C.- Yes, very sad, thanks for your comment.

That's what good writing does: puts us in your shoes, and then reminds us of our own point of view. <br /><br />I'm going to stop reading these now.

There's no harder heartbreak than one that cannot be resolved. <br /><br />I like how you kept this in the present tense and how you used the "sighs" to get us, the readers, to begin to realize there would be no celebration.<br /><br />Well written.Sarahttp://www.sarahealy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6105870530641515642.post-63100708478645145442011-09-16T11:40:37.953-05:002011-09-16T11:40:37.953-05:00Oh, how sad.
