In one week I’m going to be in Guatemala. A 2 week escape in a sense. I hope that In those 2 weeks some problems get solved. I’m almost ready for my trip. The only thing left to do is a presentation about my school. I already took the pictures but my friend is going to do it. He has done a lot of those for the school so it’s supposed to be easy for him. It was my friend from Guatemala idea to give this to him. I don’t usually give my work to other people. But she told me that he does this kind of thing for everyone so why not for me. I don’t know if I should have. I’m waiting to be disappointed. Things are not the same with him. I can’t tell you more because there is always the fear of someone reading this. That is why I never put their names. I just can tell you that of my 3 friends only one remains very close to me. Nothing has happened but they are just drifting apart from us. Changes, Changes people change.I guess im one of the few that remain the same. My definition of friendship is one thing. I guess is different from the others. Unconditional. I’m your friend because I like you not because I need you and when I don’t it’s the end of the friendship. NO no no….I will be there.. for anything you need me. I guess I’m there to give and not all people are the same. I haven’t lost hope in him. Not yet but it is a short walk. The sad thing is that he is letting others take over his life. He has just left a prison to get inside another and he is not seeing it. Just me and my friend are seeing what is happening but our lips are sealed. The fall is going to be hard but such is life as they say. I’m looking forward to my trip!! I will tell you everything about it. Another adventure.

Have a great trip Nanni and I hope everything tat you wants comes from it. Friendship comes from the heart and soul regarding the individual. A person who I thought was my friend left me after I had my stroke. He couldn’t deal with it so he just decided to drop my friendship. You, Bee, Charlie, Linda and Mike are so much more of friends then he every was. So friendship can be a fleeting word if the people don’t have a heart and soul for the person. See you when you get home.

Nanni: Don’t be so hard on yourself, you know you are doing all that you can to be a friend, no matter what. If these other people cannot see that then they were not true friends to begin with. Life is too short to let other people to increase your stress level. You have a wonderful family, spend more time with them, you know they love you, and that is all you need. And as Paul said above, Mike & I, Bee & Charlie and Paul and Marylou are your friends and will always stick by you. Have a nice trip to Guatemala and don’t let all this ruin your trip! ENJOY! Linda & Mike
