We all have those people whom we spent some good days with. Family, friends, colleagues.
Often, when we meet, the conversations turn toward the days we spent together. How it felt and how it continues to give us joy even now.
This weekend, as I spent time with cousins and then a couple of childhood friends, the time together allowed us to feel the vicarious pleasure of living those golden moments again.
There's something about spending time together. In person, with other human beings…
Just the other day, I was reading and then chatting about loneliness and how we are becoming distant from others. Today, as I settled down to write, this appreciation dawned on me.
That I am someone who needs to be around people I enjoy being with.
That I want to feel the voices and touch the feelings of togetherness across different relationships I have.
That I crave talking to people who I am friends with, even if it is whiling away time in small talk.
That I am much more happier and satisfied with a day well spent in a group rather than a week of being alone.
That I must take out time to do so, as often as I can.
For, there are very few things more enjoyable than sharing moments which you can remember and feel fresh again reminiscing about those good ol' days later!
