So thought for the day. I know that reaching out to people is tough. A common post I have seen from several people is how they are tired of trying to make connections with people whether friends or family that dont seem to be giving back. From my own experience I am usually the one who initiates conversation. It used to bother me that i was the only one trying. Like people wouldnt message me or call me unless I did it first. And not going to lie sometimes it does hurt the feelings a little when people dont respond but then post things on fb about how bored they are or asking if someone wants to do things. My response to this feeling is keep trying to be the bigger person. Most of my connections with people have grown so much stronger because I kept trying. And eventually those who are not really there for you will disappear and new ones will come along and push those Grey clouds away. Becky for example has been someone who just came out of the woods and into my life. She has been a great friend. She does equal amount of work in our friendship and the two of us have extended this effort to blend our families. It is always a plus to have friends that have the same values and goals even though our views are so different. So with all of that being said keep trying to build friendships. Dont let insignificant things bring ur mood down.
