life is too short to hold those grudges, yet it happens all the time, sadly some regret not having that time or being able to go back and redo things....good poem Anne-Lise :) hugs

A sad situation Anne , life is too short to bear grudges, An incident or wrong word can lead to an unpleasant situation and if not corrected can fester over the years and then there is no way back. Tom
