Winter reminds us of what it feels like to lack warmth. We need a coat, a blanket, a furnace to provide comfort. Our bodies cannot survive the cold without a lot of help.
Distance also contributes to our lack of warmth. We need connection, communication, and understanding to provide comfort. We need others to keep us emotionally warm. A disconnect can chill us as much as a cold wind.
Don't miss opportunities to communicate, show interest in others, and increase understanding. You will benefit as much as they will. Even though you may prefer your peers, take the time to really connect and understand others, especially your family. Give hugs and kisses, but be sure your words and tone of voice convey warmth.
