There's a person you keep meaning to call.

Not because anything's wrong. Because everything's just been… a lot. The weeks stack up. The calendar fills with things that matter less than they used to. And the people who matter most quietly become the ones you'll get to — soon, when things slow down.

But things don't slow down. You do. Or you don't.

You know the feeling: looking up to find months have gone by. "We should get together" becoming something you say instead of something you do. Closeness that didn't end — it just went quiet, waiting for someone to choose it again.

Today, choose it. Bring them to mind — the friend, the face you miss — and let the stillness turn into a decision. Not someday. This weekend.
