The twenty-four hour challenge
Let’s say you really miss someone. Let’s say you think of them often. Let’s say it’s Friday night at 11:33 and you want to call them. What do you do?
You enact the twenty-four hour challenge, of course. You think of them, and think of how much you hurt not seeing them, and you wait twenty-four hours. If tomorrow at the same time you still want to call them, you do, and assume it to be something deeply rooted in your heart. If you don’t, well then either it was a whim, or you’re really self-conscious and worried about ruining their life in the process…
