A friend is a hard thing to find.
And a friendship a hard thing to keep.
Especially with so many controlling factors and edicts hanging over it (as seen in the OP)........
You shouldn't tie your friend's hands nor tape their mouths shut.
"Greetings Everyone." He says...
"Don't bother talking, I ain't listening."
Gee, friend, thanks.
One sided decision.
Force all us to peace (silence) without first asking our agreement.
Fine.
Whatever.
Your pop RIP. I'm truly sorry.
And you rest.
I think you need it.
I hope tomorrow is a brighter day, my friend.
