What does family mean to you? Perhaps it’s staying in touch with mom and dad, or spending time with your siblings that leave your door open or get in the shower just after you called dibs. Some of the people we call family, be it actual family or just friends or even strangers in our communities, can drive us nuts!
For better or for worse, however, these people are what make up your life, your beliefs, even your surroundings! It’s important to give yourself time to think about how your family has helped grow and shape you into who you are today!
At ASCENDtials, connection is one of our major values that we cherish alongside Oneness, communication, and connectivity with the mind, body, and spirit. Alongside the events we are hosting this month, it’s a good opportunity to consider the friends and family you have. Whether they’re near, or in another place, it’s important to think about these people and how they’ve impacted you.
With that being said, take this as an opportunity to reach back out to those you know! Siblings, parents, grandparents! Reconnect with those who have been disconnected! Even a “how are you?” goes a long way! Celebrate this life you live and the ones experiencing life around you!
Call mom! Call dad! Reach out to friends from the past, and make new ones for the future! Go out with them! Go talk! Go spark those ends and build again! August is a time to start afresh with new times and opportunities! Build your bridges!
