Last month, I did something a little unconventional—I (re)shared my actual cell phone number on my blog and social media profiles. It’s fascinating how accustomed we’ve become to automated interactions that we question the authenticity of genuine connections. But I assure you, that number was real, and the messages indeed came straight to my phone.
Speaking of connections, the challenges we all faced in recent Covid19 times have been eye-openers for many of us. I’m sure nobody had “global pandemic” written on their vision board or goals for 2020. We’ve all encountered unexpected experiences and emotions. These events have taught us that we’re all in this together, that our struggles and pains are shared universally. We all have stories that we carry, burdens we bear, but often, we don’t fully grasp what others are going through.
Living by Experience
Now that we’re moving forward from these challenges, let’s make it a point to understand each other’s stories. Let’s intentionally open our hearts to experiences and emotions we might not be familiar with. Sharing our stories not only brings us clarity but also allows us to impact others positively. I’ve discovered that my life improves when I can help others, and I’m sure many of you feel the same way.
Amidst the noise of everything that’s demanding our attention in any given day, I want to break free from the madness of bots and automation. These technologies have their uses, but they can never replicate the genuine connection between human beings. I don’t want to sell you anything, I simply want to connect with you as fellow human beings.
A Personal Invitation
So, if you feel the same way, if you’re open to forging authentic connections, I invite you to reach out to me through text. Yes, just a simple text to me personally at (604) 210-8668. Let’s have a conversation, share experiences, and learn from one another.
Together, we can create a world where understanding and supporting each other is the norm. I’m looking forward to hearing from you, whether it’s to share your story or just to say hello. The future is bright, and together, we’ll make it even brighter. Let’s embark on this journey of genuine human connection, knowing that we are not alone and that our collective resilience will carry us forward.
Thank you for being part of this journey, and I eagerly await your texts at (604) 210-8668. Let’s stay connected!
