The Wounds of a Friend

He was once a trusted friend, but something happened.  His friendship became treachery, and the man who had been a companion, a family friend, and confidant became an enemy.  Have you ever had that happen?  Painful, isn't it?  The person that you thought would have gone to the wall with you slowly begins to drift away.  Your phone doesn’t ring.  It’s a one-way friendship.  When you call or drop by, you get the connection but it’s cold, routine, and your friend gives you the impression that he’s outgrown your friendship.
