Granny's Advice

By Rosaleen Dickson, BA, MJ
Dear Great Granny.

I have two sisters and a brother who i haven't seen in five years. I send christmas and birthday cards. they never try to contact me. we had a stupid falling out. no matter how much I try to patch things up it hurts me terribly. what should i do?

Dear friend

Whatever you have done to hurt them can probably not be undone. It's like throwing a stone. Once it has been thrown, that's it.

Try to be the kind of person with whom they would want to associate. Make yourself a better person, then tell them you are sorry for having estranged them, and that you want to start again. Eventually they will come back and be willing to be your friends.

To begin with, you might try to conform with some of the ordinary courtesies, such as writing a decent letter. We who care for the people to whom we are writing will capitalize the first word of every sentence. We will also capitalize Christmas, and the personal pronown "I".

I'm not just picking at little faults, but carelessness in little things can indicate that a person also may be careless in larger things.

Calling yourself (your email address) also indicates certain things about your personality that could be improved. Your self esteem is too low. Be a better person and you will like yourself more, and so will other people.

Make yourself over into the person your family will welcome back, and then start again trying to make friends with them all. If they know you've made an effort, they will pardon you for whatever it is you have done to drive them away.

I wish you success.

Truly yours,
GG
