24 it's nice to be nice

spoke to an old friend today. we haven't talked since 10th grade. after we caught up with a few pleasantries, all he really wanted to know was what was the name of my cousin who hated him back then?? i found this very odd after all these years. i guess he was still probably trying to figure out why she disliked him, when almost every other person on this planet found him charming and instantly liked him. why this would still bother him, i have no idea. i'm sure she hasn't given him a
second thought since meeting him. and the worst part is that she probably didn't and still doesn't know that her actions toward him hurt his feelings to this extent. i'm betting she didn't even think she was being mean, because she always treated everyone the same way. and he's not the only person to ask me about her. another old friend asked me the same thing. " your cousin that hated me, what the heck was her name?" so i guess the lesson is to be nice to everyone, even if upon meeting them you really detest them. you never know what an impact your words will have on .*
