I wasn't going to post, because it doesn't seem right for me to be the first one to post about this situation, but as we learned from October Sky, "A rocket won't fly unless someone lights the fuse." So I guess I'd better light the fuse.
My feelings are as follows. (Another list.)
1. I understand Laura feeling resentful.
2. I understand Heather feeling like Laura should hate her.
3. I understand Laura not hating Heather, because you guys have been friends for a long time.
4. It all happened in the past. I find it ironic that nobody was mad until Heather told us about it. I mean, we can't change what happened in the past, but we can make our future better than our past. (fortune cookie moment!) You can sit there fretting about what you could have done differently, but you'd be better off changing the present.
5. I know the situation is different, what with you guys being friends and such close friends at that, but my one rule for Laura: Don't become a Chloe. As I know from experience, Heather already has enough guilt on her, and that will only be added to if you hate her, call her bad things (I know you wouldn't), avoid her, etc. The best thing you can do for either of your consciences is to forgive her. See number 4.
6. Laura needs to express her emotions more. You've got your auras, and I've got empathy. At least slightly. But empathy means you actually feel the subject's feelings. I'm pretty sure that's what happened at lunch. How is a person supposed to send positive energy when she feels sad enough to cry for a week?
7. I am Switzerland. I guess Switzerland is just neutral, probably not a peacemaker, so I guess I'm the UN. I'm the UN of the Phunk Sisters. Hooray. *sarcasm* Realy I just made this one because I wanted 7 items. 7 so it's odd for Laura, but 7 is the odd number that Heather likes, so it's perfect! Hey, the UN doesn't have it too bad off. They even have their own flag!
That's all I got. Don't you think Mrs. Graham has a really annoying voice?
