Happy Sunday, Kasambuhays! Sundays are a good day to slowdown and take a moment to reflect; a refreshing pace than the usual weekday routine.
We have grown accustomed to a fast-paced lifestyle. Oftentimes, we get so caught up with our to-do-lists and
deadlines that we forget to leave any room for the people we truly care
for, such as your old friends, childhood buddies included. When did
you last see them? Have you contacted them recently?
Remember, people
are priceless and true friends are real treasures. So why not make it a
goal today (right this minute!) to re-connect with these people? If
you're at a loss as to where to begin, here are some simple tips that
you can do. Let Project Reconnect begin!
Go Virtual!
Almost everything is now on the Internet. Nowadays, the best way to
track down old familiar faces is to use the different social sites
available on the web. Facebook is a great starting point, as well as
other classmate-related websites.
Old-school phone book
Don't underestimate the usefulness of old phone directories! The odds
that your friend's family still lives in the same area are pretty big.
Work up the courage to call and ask about your friend. They may have
all the necessary information, specifically his/her mobile number.
Chat and catch up!
Once you've found these friends, follow through with a phone call or a
text message. Just make sure to keep your messages light! After all,
you don't want them to feel uncomfortable. After a series of
correspondence, suggest you meet up for a night or an afternoon of
catching up and reminiscing!
Communicate, communicate!
Like other relationships, friendships are best nurtured with a whole
lot of communication. Keep your doors open for your friends. Don't let
your killer schedule rob you of the joy of spending time with these
amazing people--most especially those that have taken up a huge space
in your heart!
