or I am thinking about you would be OK rather than nothing at all. People do need reminding about certain things close to the heart.
I have read a story once in The Chicken Soup for the Soul book, this one lady was sick and was in the hospital, the medicine she was given was not really helping her to get better, she seem depressed as well. So their pastor from their church came and visit her, her husband was there as well. When she talked to the pastor the husband went to get some coffee from the vending machine. The pastor asked her about her everyday life, and somehow it got to the point where she told the pastor that there was only one small thing she wanted so much to hear from her beloved husband and it was I Love You. She said she knows that her husband loves her, but she just wants to hear it sometimes.
So after visiting the lady, the pastor went and talk to the husband, and told him what the lady had said. The husband was surprised and admitted that he rarely say those words to her. "Tell her" said the pastor. And so the husband did.
And the lady became much happier and later on became healthy and was able to leave the hospital. They both live a much happier life after that.
So a little reminding goes a long way. Don't you think? :)
