A friend/relative/elder lost a near/dear one.
You haven’t spoken to them for ages.
It would be very weird if you called them out of the blue.
What would you say?
Just make that call.
Still thinking about whether or not to do so?
Don’t think. Make that call.
Just call and say you’re sorry to hear about the news.
Luckily, being human means our feelings tend to manifest themselves into words..
Still thinking?
Don’t bother. Make that call.
I’ve been on the ‘other’ side.
And it makes all the difference in the world.

Inspired by an exchange I had with a friend who was debating whether or not to make the call. He did. And I was glad he made the choice, for he knows not what he’s done.. (in a good way) :)
