Meeting People We Already Know
After seeing someone you haven't seen in a while, it's normal to feel like you're meeting someone you already know. Whether it's his or her longer hair, trendier clothes or deeper voice, there's something so primal about revisiting a familiar friend. However, it's important to tread lightly. Do the same things make them tick? Laugh? Debate? It's interesting how we evolve and change. Things used to make me upset that don't anymore. Things used to amuse me that no longer interest me. This is how we should aim to meet new people we've never met before. The familiar, warm intonation is comforting, but the light questioning is inquisitive and makes you seem interested. I'm going to watch carefully how old friends, new friends and mere acquaintances interact. You can learn a lot by observation.
