Tonight was our monthly writer's group meeting and as usual it was great. There is something very uplifting about getting together with kindred spirits. Even if much of the talk strays far from writing. We laugh until we cry and enjoy lots of great conversation.
I know that everyone doesn't write, but I highly recommend finding or founding some sort of group that aligns with your interests. I believe this type of gathering is sadly a dying one and we are all suffering for it.
As humans, we crave interaction with other humans, it's why villages form and grow to towns and cities and so on. We desire interaction and benefit greatly from it.
The days of old are fading and gone with them are the bowling leagues, softball leagues, and roller skating rinks. All these things were used as social activities to benefit our souls. Sure Facebook is great, but Face to Face can't be replaced.
So try it out. Create a group or find one in your area and enjoy time spent with people who enjoy the same things that you enjoy. Your spirits will be lifted !!
