[quote=Anonymous]I read something the other day that was to the effect of - "if you have the opportunity to assume something was not personal, take it." It was expressed more eloquently, but I think the concept is important. OP can assume that her neighbor was slighting her, or she can consider that: Neighbor may not have known Neighbor may have seen, made a mental note to send a card or whatever, then got busy with other stuff and ultimately forgot Neighbor did send a card which was lost in the mail (or a text that didn't go through) Basically, in the absence of other information, OP can choose to assume the neighbor deliberately slighted her or choose to assume some benign explanation. IMO, she should choose not to take it personally. Why spend her time and energy getting upset or hurt over something that may not have been personal? [/quote]
