Beautiful Thing: Reconnecting with Old Friends….Online
I may have mentioned that I discovered Facebook recently (I know, I know, where have I been the past 5 years?). It’s been quite interesting reconnecting with old friends. And I was thrilled to find a few old friends on Linkedin as well.
Part of me thought, why not leave that in the past? I mean, let’s face it, my good friends and work colleagues have stayed with me all along. But it’s not always possible. Life gets in the way and before you know it your lose contact with someone. That doesn’t make you (or them) a bad person. It’s just life.
Even if you haven’t talked to some in a decade, there’s something fun about reconnecting with them on a social network, seeing photos of their family, etc. It’s better than a high school reunion if you ask me. I’m simply loving it!
