Thanks for the encouragement everyone. It's been a kinda tough day... not enough sleep last night and my cold seems to have resurfaced.
A close friend of mine, who has been giving me amazing advice throughout this entire sitch (and is reading these boards! HEY!) recently sent me an email with a piece of advice that I'd like to bounce around on these boards.
She commended me for the short and to-the-point email I just sent, but then brought up a suggestion which I think is an interesting idea. She mentioned that while actions certainly speak louder than words, it's also important to make sure they're sending the right message. (I'm paraphrasing here) And the only way to do that is to actually explain the reason for being dark.
What do you think of this? I haven't had time (nor am I in the right mind thanks to this cold and lack of sleep) to properly process this thought, but wanted to toss it out there.
