The Widder Curry Asks: What Would You Have Done?

What Would You Have Done?

Throughout our lives we are faced with making decisions.  Some are important; some are not.  Some will change our lives forever; others will make no difference.  Some of our decisions will haunt us forever; some of our decisions we will never remember making.

I had a decision to make last week.  I will not tell you the outcome in this article, but I will respond to it after I hear from you, the reader. Here is what happened:

For the past four years I have talked to – or texted – a man every single day.  In those four years there were only two days that this event did not happen. We were good friends; discussed many different topics.

I talked to this person last Thursday and before hanging up said we would probably talk on Friday.

Friday came and I had a question about a leak in my sink. I sent him a text asking for direction, but did not receive an answer.  Strange, but didn’t think anything of it.

Saturday came and I repeated the question, but, again, no answer. This was so out of character I began to get worried.  Saturday night I called but both his cell phones were turned off.  That really had me worried because he uses his phones for business.

Sunday morning came and I called again.  Same response for the telephones.  This man had a stroke several years ago, and lives in an area where there are no neighbors.  My thoughts were that maybe something had happened and I became alarmed.  Still, I did nothing.

Monday morning I called again.  I texted him also.  Phones both went to voice mail and no answer to my text.

Question to you:  What would you have done next?

Once this is posted by my editor-dude, I will respond to what I did do and what happened two days after this is published.  I am truly interested in your responses.   Thank you.
