One of the things that happens in real life is separation – this can happen with physical objects, relationships and even spiritual disconnection. I moved around a decent amount from city to city growing up – not too far that I couldn’t see friends but enough that an effort (1.5 hours of driving each way) had to be made.
This comes to mind because as I look for work and update contacts, I’m already seeing this disconnection from things around me.
The week after I finished college I found myself back at home with Facebook as my only connection to the people I’d spent three years or so with. The people who I’d soon see blending into my background of Facebook people online, people who I really didn’t care for – who I wouldn’t keep up with.
Use this week to just reconnect with someone you lost contact with be it an actual person, a series you enjoyed or even a project you dropped.
