Recently, just learned of a small spat between two frens tat i hv known since seconday school. Apparently, it started with a letter sent by snailmail and later responed by email. Dun reali want to deal with the specifics here, but it kinda concerns me. Basically, the reason for the small spat was due to a series of incident tat occured many years ago and i guess old wounds do take quite awhile to heal, i think...

Not trying to act as some self justified peace maker here, but reali hope tat the situtation will not reach a stage where both parties find it hard to talk to each other. I treasure both this two frens and do not want to see myself caught in the middle or worst still, taking sides here. Actually, like all spats, both parties are kinda at fault here... and i really hope that there can be someway where misunderstanings can be cleared between them. Sometimes, though, in a situation like this, it would be great for someone to step forward and take the first step in apologising. Though what i feel is most important is that there must be sincererity in what is been said.

Fortunately, both parties have already taken the first step and reach out to the other in one way or another to try to explain and clear some misunderstandings tat mite hv occured. A letter, a phone call, what is used is not important, but what you truely mean is important. What u say must be genuine, cause it is only then can you trust yourself and the other party. So having said that, i really and sincerly hope that the current spat, be they due to misunderstandings or hurt feelings form the past can be resolved, and as a fren to both parties, this is really what i want to see.
