Reach out and make a friend today. How hard is that? It’s time to break the silos we’ve built around ourselves and fortified with our digital platforms. The digital platforms give us an illusion we’re connected or important (think of those who think being an influencer is important – it’s short lived and transitory). Reach out and make it real by connecting with another whether it’s a colleague, neighbor, or family member. C’mon, you just may enjoy getting to know someone more deeply than just saying, hello.

A Better Life ~ Engaging with Others
A friend mentioned that his father finds people where he lives (assisted care) unfriendly. His father claims the other residents don’t like to talk. I questioned my friend and found out that his father is waiting for people to come to him and engage him in a conversation. Unfortunately, it’s not the way it works. One has to step out and engage others. It’s how we connect. The more we engage others, the more we become connected and a part of our community. It really is a life changing action.
