Some Things Can't Wait


--by cfaita, posted Dec 10, 2014
 I was working and under a very tight deadline today. Skype rang and it was one of my dearest friends, who is quite ill.

I was tempted not to answer because my work needed to get done. Do you know the feeling?

I picked up anyway and we had a lovely chat. I even got up the courage to speak to her about her illness and my fears related to it. When we hung up,  she knew that  I love her, miss her and can't wait to see her again. Good call, it was so worth my time!
