Dear T,

I constantly want to give you stuff - trivial things like a flower I found or a cookie I made. Just the act of giving you something (anything) would be so powerful for me. But I respect your boundaries so I won't ever give you something.

But this week while you're on vacation I will give you the gift of silence. Even though you told me it's perfectly okay to email you while you're away, I will show you how much I care and respect your right to time off by not emailing you. I hope you're enjoying your gift because it's killing me to give it Just 7 more days!
