Sorry for the hiatus. It’s been a tough first quarter of 2024. But here I am, again, planning to post weekly. It was the spring of 2020 when my mental health dramatically broke at work. My good friend and colleague, Julie, took the brunt of my outburst. Yet it was Julie who came to visit me when I was on sick leave. She arrived at my front door with a big smile and flowers. I couldn’t invite her in because of covid restrictions. We sat in the garden with a drink. Every time I tried to speak, my lip trembled, and tears flowed. I couldn’t even manage to get out the apology I owed. Julie sat with me for ages. I said nothing comprehensible. She said very little, but she was there. I do remember her saying, ‘I’m here for you’ and ‘you will get better.’
Tell them you love them?
