The older I get the more I realize how important it is to let the people you care about know how you feel about them.  Time slips by quicker and quicker each year.

I can’t even count how many times I have said to myself “It’s been too long since I connected with {fill in name here}, I should give them a call“. Then something distracts me such as a meeting at work,  a stop sign while driving,  or maybe a crying child that needs some comforting.

There never seems to be enough ‘in-between’ time to make a call or even write a note to the people you care about.  Sometimes it gets so long between contact you fear they start thinking you don’t care anymore.

I know I am not alone in the busy world we live in and struggling to keep in contact with those we like.  I am taking a stand against the clock.  I may not be able to call everyone I care about but we live in a world of technology so it is about time I use it. I am going to make it a priority to send a text,  write a Facebook message or email and when I am in a rare spot of having more than a minute to spare I will pull out a piece of stationary and put my love to paper.

I urge you to do the same before the one’s you like alottle can’t be found. Maybe together we can add a few more smiles into this world.  Love and caring always comes with smiles.
