Sometimes, I have this very bad habit of passing comments straight-fowardly, directly, curtly to friends. OK.. To be more precise, only good friends of mine "suffer".
So yesterday, I passed a few comments (is it a few or alot? Hmm..) to a friend of mine. The feedback was "You sure don't mince your words" and then added in front to nullify that "I just thanked God that I have a true friend."
Towards the end of the conversation, I found out that though appreciated my feedback were, I felt that I really shouldn't have passed it - For I do not know the whole matter. As much as my friend was looking for support, the support that I have given was not what was envisaged from my friend. In all honesty, I am someone who is as real as I can be especially to a good friend. And I guess.. I really wasn't able to give a full support if I can't agree so I was too direct.
What a yester-night. I think what I had last night was considered a mini quarrel with a friend. I couldn't exactly sleep till I made sure that I resolute a few things in my heart. I will give my listening ear as support. Speak less, hear more. Hold my horses!!!!!
