Words you can use
Use a line as written if it fits. A specific detail in your own voice makes it stronger.

Make the message personal
Share one small detail, then invite the other person in. You can also set a boundary when you are tired.
Before you send it, replace one general word with a real detail: a moment you remember, a quality you noticed, or the difference their action made. Read it aloud once. If it sounds unlike you, shorten it.
