DID I OFFEND YOU?.....

 I was thinking the other day as i had some time alone ( which isn't often) about what i could say to anyone that would make a difference today ..what words could i use to make them take notice ? is there a single word that could unlock the human heart to release the love, compassion, caring, kindness, patience? ahhh i have said so many things that i have heard polite responses to ..like " wow i never gave it much thought," or " ill have to think on what you said" or the safe answer " i see what your saying"but the truth is how many have heard me speak  and shrugged and said  "oh thats craziness, nonsense!"  im sure, in fact i know because i have heard these words as they walked away from me rolling their eyes and shaking their heads...even to the point of becomming angry and offended !
i have overheard the snearing jokes& the laughter when they thought i wasnt listening. Did i offend you because you stood in a mirror and looked at what the world cannot see? were you angered because somewhere inside your mind or heart something i may of said stirred the sleeping beast that you though you had hidden? Did i perhaps make you uncomfortable around your "friends" ? the ones who encourage you to fight against yourself?..i cannot tel you how many times i have cried over being rejected, laughed at and even mocked for what i know is truth! Yet you politely sit and listen , all the while owndering when i will be done talking so you can go on with your day , as if you have all the time in the world!..
Did i offend you with my openess? maybe something i said stuck in your mind  and you cant get loose from it? is that why you chose to avoid me? even worse ignore me!..Its ok, ive gotten use to it..and as time goes on i see more and more of the people i thought i called "friend" promise me that we will"get together" and leave me waiting at the window....
So if i offended you by truth, life, joy and peace, im not sorry...if i angered you  by something i shared in a group of friends, made you look at yourself and point a finger..im not sorry...the only thing i would have to say that im sorry for is that one day when i do come back here one last time to collect my own  i will have never of known you. because you did not know me.....JESUS
