#ygkChallenge: Re-Connect With Friends and Family

Welcome to Kingstonist’s weekly challenge, dare, resolution or whatever you prefer to call it. Each week we establish a new and ambitious community goal, encouraging our readers, followers, friends and families to step out of their comfort zones and do something great, and hopefully a little out of the ordinary. Consider this your official and personal invitation to join us in completing a small but meaningful achievement. By taking part in this community-wide initiative, we hope to make Kingston a slightly better place to live, work and play. And of course, we also hope that you will feel proud of your contribution and achievement.

This week’s challenge encourages you to:

Re-Connect! As we move through different stages in life we often lose touch with people who were once very important to us. Some of those people are best left in the past but most of us have at least one person who we wished were still around. This week, I challenge you to make the move! Pick up the phone, send an e-mail, or..(gasp)..put a card or letter in the mail to let them know you’re thinking of them. Whether it’s just to say hello or to find out where life has taken them, re-connecting with someone who once made your life more fulfilling can be a lot of fun. “In life you’ll realize there is a purpose for everyone you meet. Some will test you, some will use you, and some will teach you. But most importantly, some will bring out the best in you.”
