Contacting Online, Reconnecting in Person

I went on a small road trip today with a friend to go see another friend's vocal recital. This was arranged through Facebook. The recital was simply incredible, and more importantly it provided a special opportunity to reconnect with old friends. I don't normally do things like this very often, taking spontaneous trips and outings. I am so glad I did today. I feel so much happier now because of the joy that accompanies such happy reunions. Among other things, this experience reminded me of the true value of people. No amount of work or entertainment elsewhere can full compensate for the company and resources supplied by people: friends, family, neighbors, everyone.
