Connection


How do we spend our time in life?  Often we ignore the ones that adore us and adore the ones who ignore us.  We love the ones who hurt us and hurt the ones that love us.  We often “talk” to our friends via FaceBook, text messages, emails and Skype.  How often to you meet face to face, hold hands, hug and see each other eye to eye and hear and feel their words, expressions and feelings?  (I won’t even mention handwritten notes!) (Yes, people used to actually write notes!)

While much can be said for the advances in technology, it has saved lives it has “improved” our abilities to communicate in new ways, I submit it has NOT improved our ability to communicate as a people.  In fact, I say that it has retarded our growth and social skills in many ways.

I urge you to take a step back and think of how you interact with parents, grandparents, siblings, friends, co-workers, and others whom you care about.  How do you REALLY interact with them? What can you do differently to communicate with them in a way that is most authentic, important and meaningful to you?  Good.  DO IT!

We can be the change we seek in this world. and in ourselves.  One day.  One journey.  One person.  One connection at a time.
