The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship.

A nest and a web are not decorations. They are what the creature has to build in order to live at all, and friendship sits in the same place for you. It is not the reward for a life already working; it is part of the structure that holds the life up. Left unbuilt, nothing falls down all at once, which is why it is easy to postpone.

Pick one person you have been meaning to contact and contact them this week, without an occasion. Building is ordinary work, done in small pieces, repeated.
