…….. Forging the connections that are best will vary greatly from one person to another, depending on your character and your environment. The more extroverted may prefer to connect with other people through organizing fun get-togethers or volunteering. The more introverted may connect with famous writers of forgone times and share them with others through writing, develop technological applications that cultivate compassion, or take care of animals and plants…….
Author’s Comment: As a social and curious living being, searching for the connections which instill you with energy and life is inherent to becoming a more fulfilled being. My desire to be seen as good pushed me to do work with those in need, without realizing that I too had needs that were not being met. After much trial and error, I found my greatest joy in connecting people to nature through hikes and environmental projects. It’s difficult to ignore the messages of others near and far, but searching deep within and making the connections best for you will surely enliven mind, body, and spirit.
