Hey you, Yes you. Do you know that by virtue of receiving this mail, you’re a friend or at least, an acquaintance?

Not to death, God forbid (Yes, I’m a Yoruba mother). I almost lost a friend through silence, assumptions, misinterpreted emotions and indifference. Thankfully, this week, under dim lights (so that I didn’t have to make eye contact), I was able to do damage control—a nervous but defensive confrontation—after which everything melted like butter under heat. Lessons?
