Becoming … less afraid of rejection July 20, 2009
Posted by janehaynes in : Atomies of love, Becoming... , comments closedRejection is never nice but fearing or avoiding it can shrink life.

Rethinking Friendship July 10, 2009
Posted by janehaynes in : Atomies of love, Uncategorized , comments closedI wrote earlier that sometimes it takes a lifetime to know which of those magic meetings in life with significant others remain with us as platinum rings of eternity. Now, I think I may have been placing too much emphasis on the idea of endurance. For a start, I don’t have as many friends now as when I was younger. I’m more reclusive, more disillusioned and for whatever reason – their memories vividly mark a chapter of our lives. I still remember not only my own, but my children’s long lost best friends as if it was yesterday. It is not, after all, I think the length of time that matters but the depth of loving, or come to that, hating.
