Written retrospectively for the 2019 archive.

Reading my thirty-six reflection, I’m reminded how often I think of someone when I can’t get in touch right that second. Then I wait until I have more to say or more time to say it.

Looking back, some of the easiest conversations to begin are the ones that start with “I was thinking about you.” I want to get more comfortable sending that message while the thought is still fresh. If we only have a few minutes, that’s still a few minutes I’m glad we had.
