Meet Ups, Linkedin, and networking socials are great! And, they certainly have their place. However, nothing beats two or more people establishing good old-fashioned relationships.  It’s plausible to think, if we’re interested in the same things or our ideas about certain topics are cause for passionate debates for us, why not go further and connect on a deeper level? It’s not that people don’t desire relationships, we’ve just loss the art of establishing human connections. And from a much more serious perspective, lack of care, interest, and understanding of others, is why it can become easier to vilify or hurt someone who doesn’t think like you or look like you.  As we wind down 2017, let’s make 2018 the year for deeper connections with others!  Will you take the challenge?
