you’ve (probably) got (no) mail
One of my biggest personal challenges in light of my current predicament, is insufficient time to stay in touch with loved ones. My days are long and even more jam-packed than they used to be (something I didn’t think was even possible just weeks ago). As a result, I have become much slower at answering emails than I want to be. With growing to-do lists, piles on my desk, and an overflowing email inbox, I’m just not able to get to everything I need to in a day.
Unfortunately, with pressing needs, personal emails are bumped to the back of the list. Not because I want to, but because I need to do the most urgent things first. Sadly, this has put me out of personal touch with friends and family…
I wrote 119 emails today. Most likely, you, my friend, didn’t receive one. It’s not because I didn’t think of you. In fact, you crossed my mind often. I want to write you the reply you deserve, but I can’t seem to find the time. Despite my silence, I appreciate your email, your encouragement, your strengthening prayers.
So while you didn’t get an email from me today, others did — putting me one step closer to being able to write you the email I’ve been wanting to write…
119! my oh my! i have a very hard time keeping up with personal emails too…
very nicely written by the way.
yes, very nicely written. and we know…we love you and wish we could help!
Yeah, we do know, and we all understand. You are loved!
I love you Kitty…
Thinking of you! Good luck with all the emails. Love ya!!
This is an sms I recieved the other day: ” Even if time ticks away and u hardly hear a word from me, always remember friendship is more than just talk of the mouth…. it’s a treasure in the heart!”
It’s all good, Alece (although I’m not one with an e-mail in your inbox). How you manage to blog with 119 messages to write it what’s beyond me. Wow.
This was over a year ago! My how time flies!
what brought you back to this old post, angie???
