not just a song by Aretha Franklin.....I wish people would respect others more. When I deal with people I try to have a little respect for their point of view and their feelings. But I am beginning to see that people don't really have the same respect for me. It is almost like you want your feelings to be taking in count but fuck mine.
There is guy who I always considered to be my friend. In the last year I have realized that maybe that title was a little misplaced. I began to reconsider my relationship with him. Our relationship was so one sided. I am always there when he needs me...going above and beyond the call of duty. But what does he give me in return nothing. Nothing at all......so I decided that was not the type of person that I wanted in my life. So i just decided to distance myself a bit. Let the relationship run it course and crash off the cliff... :-) But today he left me a voice mail message and he told me over the phone that he really appreciated me and loved me more than I would ever know....BLAH...BLAH....BLAH
That got me to thinking....ACTION SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. U can tell somebody that you care and appreciate them but if u treat them like shit...what do u really mean? I am firm believer that actions speak louder than words. U can say all day how u feel about someone but what do u do when the rubber meets the road. Are u there when I need? That is the true marker of a friend. to love u during the good and the bad. Maybe he wasn't my friend and that is a hard lesson to learn but I had to learn it........
