This week I heard a story about how someone was disappointed in the way their friends showed up (or in their opinion, didn't show up) after their father passed, even though friends did reach out and offered help. I also heard a story about how someone was upset that their partner did not apologize/make up to them for something that happened - even though the partner did say they were sorry, stated exactly what they did wrong, and got them food as an offering. And it just drove the point home for me that folks be communicating but not speaking the same language AT ALL sometimes.
