It is hard to keep up with friends these days. One thing I do every once in a while is go
through my phone book and look up the people I have not spoken to in a while. I
will give them an email or a call. They
are usually surprised and happy to hear from me. Emails usually turn into calls. It’s great to catch up. I do this a couple times a year. A few days before New Years is usually a good
time. People are feeling good and
festive. They are thinking about what
the New Year will bring.
Sometimes
we tell ourselves we will talk to someone later. Later becomes later and later until it is too
late period. I have had this happen to
me several times already. So now I take
this ritual seriously. You may find a
friend is facing a serious challenge, a joyous occasion, or just needs a little
mental boost. Your call/email can make
all of the difference. This is a great
time of year to mend fences. I’m not
going to be long winded about this. Just
take a chance, reach out and let someone know you are thinking about them. It will
go a long way.
Happy New Year!
Sigrid
