I really appreciate this. It's advice that emotionally mature people don't need. But so many of us do need it...because we aren't emotionally mature! Social media, cell phones, and the like have really changed the culture around what healthy communication looks like. Remember when we wrote letters and waited weeks to hear back from people? I have become soooo NOT patient. Just thinking about sending a letter to my grandparents in India makes me itch. It took over a month to hear back from them. You just move on. I think we forget that. Life goes on, text or not. Thanks!!
