For the first time, I may have to erase an entry in my blog. The original entry was a heated exchange between two old friends who had a fall out. One was foolish enough to let a grudge to linger for more than 10 years. The other is not aware that such animosity exist. Fortunately, the value of friendship prevailed and hopefully, the hatchet that shouldn’t be there in the first place is already buried.
I remember a poem by William Blake:
“I was angry with a friend, I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe, I told it not, my wrath did grow.”
My mistake is I was angry with a friend but I treated him as a foe which prolonged the grudge instead of settling an issue much, much earlier.
To Richard, perhaps synchronicity played its part that you were having your seminar in our building last Tuesday and helped settle things out. Thanks for that bro. To Oliver, goodluck with all your endeavors. People do change and I really admire the mature way you handled our heated exchange, even though my actions are really irrational. You take care, man.
