My friend Wendy by Donna

I found out today that my friend Wendy committed suicide on Saturday and I really don't know how to deal with it. I am trying to speak about it as much as I can to the people who I see, I guess I'm trying to make sense of it all.

I have not heard from Wendy in a while, but I am a true believer in if there is no news then it's good news, but I guess I am very wrong.

I know I should have rung her, I know she was lonely and most of the time she was sad, but you know how it is, there is never enough time. Well this time there will never be enough time and I know that if anyone had given Wendy a bit more time she would have known that someone does care for her and that she does have a meaning in this world. She was a special and kind person who didn't deserve to be left alone in a world full of sadness and that there was more to life than what she believed.

I am truly sorry for not being there for you Wendy, one phone call was all it would have taken, I would have been there in a heartbeat if only you had called. I will never forget you and I hope you are at peace now and loved and appreciated by whomever you are with. Please forgive me for not ringing you more often, I was very selfish and I am saddened by the loss of you and I will miss our get togethers and phone calls, but at least you are at rest now, even though I still would give anything to have you here.........Good-bye my friend...God bless....Rest in peace.......
