Tru Talks BlogCast: “Friends. How many of us have them?” and the True Meaning of Your Fave Five.
7/29/08 – “Friends. How many of us have them?” and the True Meaning of Your Fave Five. So As I sit here on the verge of my 33rd birthday, I’m looking through the large amount of phone numbers, email addresses, and various amounts of contact information that I have accumulated over the past several years and it disturbs me. As of today, I have over 460 contacts between my cells’ phone book, and email database which doesn’t include the stacks of business cards that never were transcribed into a digital counterpart. To most, that would be a bit of a WOW moment. For me it is an indicator of the many people who have come and gone throughout the last few years. Some by my own doing, but most were and still are fly by night. Some were really good friends but time, careers and families have changed some of the dynamics of our relationships. Some were cool for a time and then “That Something Happened” and it all changed. What is “That Something?” Only those people know. The un-returned phone calls. The countless email messages un-replied to, and the ignored IM’s. (I could never understand that) This is crazy.
