How many long nights have you set by someone's hospital bed praying they'll be all right and won't be alone? How many long nights have you stayed up because someone out of town is ill or injured, and you wait for a call on the phone? How many nights have you reached out for someone and they're no longer there? How many nights have you dreamed of the talks and laughter you used to share? How many times have you wished you'd said something to them, but that time has come and gone? How many times have you wished you hadn't left things in anger, and now it's not able to be undone? How many times were you delayed and just missed saying goodbye? For some people that haunts them for the rest of their lives. How many times did you go see someone while they were still here? They need your time and attention now, not later only your tears. Never leave a kindness or kind word undone. Always say you love them and show it. There's a world of difference in telling someone and them actually KNOWING it.
