And this is exactly the type of situation that you need to take advantage of, because it isn't going to come around all the time. You have to get yourself together and quit with the crying and pity party so that you are strong enough for this. This is a series of baby-steps, not giant leaps, and if you could have been her friend at the moment she needed you, it could have been a plus, but you thought first of your own pain and you weren't there. Next time she might call someone else when she justs wants someone to talk to.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years. Abraham Lincoln
It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. Theodore Roosevelt
