We have a family event coming up that is always tedious. However, a conflict came up and we must be somewhere else. Yippee. I feel guilty because I am so happy to be able to avoid the first event.
A friend commiserates. Don't feel guilt, says she. This way you'll avoid feeling resentful if you go. So true.
Resentful versus guilty. Such a choice. But that is what friends are for.
The "begrudging", as the old Irish would say. I chose guilty.
