Sorry I Haven't Texted You Back

by Alicia Cook

even dreams take their toll and I need to regain focus. Goals come with strings, and when I say I’m tired you don’t get what I mean.

Someone you work with woke up to a buzzing phone and the worst news of their life and still showed up seven minutes before you did. Odds are, you nudged shoulders on a busy street with a broken human today, and you didn’t even know it. Practice empathy. Practice kindness. Always.
