If you ever find yourself thinking, "I wish I could send X person a message to thank them for all they've done," don't shy away. Write it and send it to them. Give back to those who have unknowingly given to you.

It is one of my biggest regrets with the news from last night; not just that I missed out on giving them thanks, but that I missed out from giving them support.
Yeah, I'm with you there, I'd been following his journey but it had been a bit since I reached out to him, mainly because I simply didn't know what to say. His struggles with the US system break my brain as a Canadian, and now seeing how utterly it failed him in the end just infuriates me. RIP
this is definitely something i try to do. random thoughts of people pop into my head that i haven't thought of in years but clearly had an impact, send a message in the moment and try not to worry about how it will be received. friends continue to exist even when out of contact.
