i don't know if i can say it enough: if you're thinking of someone, contact them. I was hesitant, and still am at times, to just write to say hi. But, time and time again, I've found that there's a reason why that person has come to mind. And, writing to say hi has never hurt anyone, as far as I know.

And though I may tell my loved ones too often that I love them, I'd rather err of the side of too often than not enough.
