Happy Sunday, fam!
As we round out yet another week, I just wanted to take a moment to reflect on the impact social media has had in maintaining relationships. Yesterday, I attended the wedding (technically vow renewal, as the couple actually got married last year during the pandemic) of a former coworker. I was so honored to be in attendance, and I had a great time catching up with the couple, as well as other former coworkers who were invited. It's crazy to me to think, but the bride and I (who started working at the hotel around the same time) hadn't actually worked together in almost four years! Thankfully, through the wonders of modern technology, we have been able to keep in touch. I have learned over the years that it can sometimes be incredibly difficult to make friends as an adult, and even more difficult to maintain relationships once established. And while there are some people in your life with whom you may call, text, or see regularly, it can be unrealistic to expect that to be the norm for some friendships.
I'm once again grateful that, even if you don't see or talk to someone every day, you can still find ways to cultivate meaningful connections with people through other platforms.
