4T H C O F F E E PERSPECTIVE Wrinkled Heart
Im really fed up with my friend Greg. In fact I wouldn t really call him a friend anymore. Name an unkind action, word or feeling that happened in this story. It can be about either character, Marcie or Greg. He borrowed my new book. He promised a gazillion times he would bring it to my house after school today. For 4T H C O F F E E example: Marcie is fed up PERSPECTIVE He only lives down the street. After school I waited for him to come, but he obviously couldn t be bothered. I called him and told him what I was really thinking. Instead of saying sorry he came up with some stupid excuse I couldn t take it. I hung up. Marcie I m over it and HIM!
For every unkind word, action, or feeling ~ make 1 fold in your heart. It doesn t matter where your fold is & keep adding 1 fold every time something negative is stated. 4T H C O F F E E PERSPECTIVE
Im having a really sad moment after a really painful accident yesterday. Greg s story adds a different perspective or point of view. Last night I fell off my skateboard and really hurt my head I had to go to the hospital and they kept me there till midnight! I was lonely and in pain. I wanted to call Marcie, but they wouldn t let me. My mom and doctor kept saying rest over and over again. 4T H C O F F E E PERSPECTIVE What makes it worse, Marcie called today. I couldn t wait to tell her about the whole thing, but before I could even tell her anything she started shouting at me about something I was suppose to give her. I don t think she wants to be my friend anymore. She just hung up. She didn t ask how I was or anything. Greg
