I’ve already forgotten the book or article that introduced “Radical Decency” to me, but the message stuck. As we head into this holiday weekend, I am going to make an extra effort to reach out to someone. Maybe it’s someone I know who is grieving a recent loss or who will be especially lonely. Maybe it’s someone with whom I have a challenging relationship, a relationship that needs mending. After I wrap up the traditional calls to family members and close friends, I’m going to nudge myself to make one more, even if all I get to do is leave a message that says “I’m thinking of you.” I hope you’ll do the same.

I wish you a Merry Everything and Happy Always! xoKathleen
