Sometimes we forget ....

Last night we had dinner with some friends and it was the first chance I have had to visit with a friend that I have played golf with for nearly three years in regard to something that happend a few weeks ago.

This person is a very confident acting and capable of backing down most, would fiercely defend you, if need be and someone I consider a good friend.

She was in a panic, getting ready to go out of town and she was asked to get up 100 desserts for the 4th of July, the desserts were going to be sold at the celebration and the money used to support the *barn* and activity center that the mgt here wants to tear down. 

I guess it caught me off guard since I really do not support *saving the barn* and doing a hundred desserts was more than I wanted...and I blurted out *a hundred desserts* are you kidding and I am not in favor of saving the barn, ect, ect....and offered to do enough for 10-20 folks...but she was having none of that.

She said fine, *you name is removed from the list*, then I realized that I had hurt her feelings and my perception of her was that  I could be this frank and blurting out my words in that fashion really was not proper. 

I tried to back her out of my misjudgement and try as I might she was sweet about it, but my name was removed...and I knew that this needed to be mended. 

So, last night I did my best at trying to smooth  over the situation openly with our other friends.

 What I forgot is that sometimes we think we know that a person is *put together and tough*, and under the surface they are  tender souls and  I will not make that mistake again with her, and hopefully she will realize that I did not mean to hurt her feelings.....

So, I  have a bit of fence mending to do..... would not have hurt this person's feelings for the world...sometimes we forget.....that beneath the surface that people often have tender souls...

(((((hugs))))) and blessings!
