Re-Connecting

Something is in the air...I can't pinpoint it, but I can try to generalize.  Everything from the economy, politics and even mother nature is making me feel very uneasy.  But it's times like these, where I feel an absolute need to re-connect...with my family, with friends, with myself!  I get a warm feeling inside when I open up my e-mail and see a "feel good" story or get a Facebook friend request from someone I haven't heard from in years!...I can't tell you how many old friends I've re-connected with lately; it's nice!  Technology and the ease of communication are making this world seem a lot smaller to me, and at times like this, I think it's what I need: to be reminded that we're all in this together and that even during uncertain times, we're sure to get through it okay.
