If You Didn’t Have Social Media, Who Would You Reach Out To?

Hey there! So, we’re already into January, and as usual, it feels like the longest month in the history of forever. Seriously, January can be a drag. The holiday cheer has faded, wallets are feeling light, and the weather is just plain dreary. Plus, any bad news that pops up seems to loom over us like a dark cloud, making everything feel even more heavy. It’s like the universe is giving us a not-so-great welcome to the new year.

And let’s not even start on New Year’s resolutions—how many of us have already tossed those aside? It’s a bit disheartening, right? Like we had this clean slate, and now it’s just a mess again. But here’s a little ritual I like to do every January that really makes a difference. It takes just two minutes, and you can do it right now:

1. Grab your phone.
2. Scroll through your contacts.

I bet you’ll find someone you genuinely like—maybe even love—whom you haven’t seen in ages. It’s not because you’ve had a falling out; life just got in the way. You were busy, they were busy. We all do it. We think, “Oh, they’ll always be there,” and we keep putting off reaching out. But the truth is, time is precious, and we never know how long we have.

So here’s the real challenge:

3. Call that person.

Seriously, don’t just shoot them a text or ping them on social media. Those platforms can be a bit deceptive. They don’t capture the essence of what it’s like to see someone face-to-face. You miss out on the laughter, the smiles, the genuine connection. It’s way more than just a ‘like’ on a post.

In this digital age, we’ve turned our relationships into a list of names and emojis, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Yes, we’re all busy, but January is a great time to reach out. Set up a coffee date, share a laugh, and remind yourselves of the good old days before everything turned into a quick scroll on your phone.

Trust me, you won’t regret it! And if you’re looking for more inspiration, check out this post on home insemination kit ideas that can help you feel more connected.
