I had a record number of views on my blogs this past Monday, which is my usual day of posting. But I didn't post that day so it makes me wonder why so many viewers. It's almost as if I have more readers when I don't have anything to say, or maybe it's just a case of absence making the heart grow fonder.
There's something about human nature that makes us care more about the individual, and what she stands for, after the fact. When someone we had right in front of us disappears, we then decide how valuable he or she was and are willing to forgive and forget.
I know there have been people in my life who meant a lot to me, and I never really told them. There have been people, too, who meant a lot to me but I didn't realize it till much, much later.
This week, think of someone who you now appreciate but who you didn't value as much in the past. Write a letter to him or her, expressing your gratitude. It doesn't have to be a letter you really send, although you certainly could. Just acknowledging your appreciation in the privacy of your own words can help set you free.
