I have always hated it when you find yourself in a relationship of any kind that you presume is going well and then all of a sudden you find yourself being ignored. By all accounts you haven't done anything overly creepy or intrusive, but still the other person has decided that you have become a nuisance.
Well, in God's effort to grant me a greater vision of why people might do what they do, I find myself now playing the game of, 'Just ignore them until they go away.' I recently found myself with a text message from a former friend who I have asked on numerous occasions to please let me go on my way. I always wished I could be more detached, and now I finally find myself not caring as much as I used to. What freedom! What liberation!
Though I regret that this person will have to come to this realization without any communication for me, perhaps now I can be a little more sympathetic when it happens to me. Sometimes people just need to go their separate ways in order to find the greatest measure of fulfillment in their lives.

I have missed your blog Eric!! I think that this is a significant step, to see liberation, even from something like this (not knowing, or needing to know the details, hard to be more precise).
