“Thinking of you…” (photo credit: Grace Church)<\/p><\/div>\n

Week #189 – Repost: “Heavy on my mind…” (Who are you thinking of?)<\/strong><\/p>\n

As I mentioned last week<\/a>, I’m working on some new things…and on deadline for some others. \u00a0So here’s a flash back to Week #33<\/a>\u00a0because he’s heavy on my mind again this week. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Just about four years ago now…everything was about to change.<\/em><\/p>\n

While there’s always a lot of talk about the big anniversaries and holidays, the last days\u00a0of April bring up a different kind of anniversary…the first x-rays, the first admittance to Sloan, the first mention of the “C” word.<\/p>\n

As we stood in Rob’s hospital room four years ago, we were in shock. \u00a0“This is crazy…” he said more than once in disbelief. \u00a0“How can this be?” \u00a0Who knew what the next few months would bring…where it would take us…how it would\u00a0bring us together…and ultimately take him away.<\/p>\n

One thing’s for sure…he was on my mind every single day. \u00a0And I made sure I took the time to let him know it.<\/p>\n

There’s a lot of criticism over our dependence on digital communication these days…but I’ve seen ways that it can help people who otherwise couldn’t possibly stay connected under intense pressure or circumstances. \u00a0A quick little text, a Facebook post, a short email, or even just a voicemail that doesn’t require a call back…these are all ways to let someone know you are thinking of them. \u00a0Just thinking of them…period. \u00a0Not expecting anything in return.<\/p>\n

Your Happyness Challenge for the Week Ahead:<\/strong> Who’s heavy on your mind?<\/strong> \u00a0Take time…right now…to send them these three little words: “Thinking of you.”<\/p>\n

That’s it.<\/p>\n

Just three little words.<\/p>\n

Spread Happyness — and see where this takes you! \u00a0Share your thoughts in the comments!<\/p>\n

(And PS: I’m thinking of YOU!)<\/p>\n
