OK, so maybe you didn't really forget them but we all have those email addresses in our inbox. You know, that girl you met at camp and wanted to stay in contact with?
Or maybe someone you used to write regular and life got in the way and
it just kinda dwindled out and you haven't written in ages? Maybe you
are just plainly bad at writing back and there are a quite a few emails
you haven't got to writing back....those are the people I am talking
about.
I want to encourage you to sign into your email and finally write them. I normally don't have problems writing people but I know many do. If you are thinking "I don't know what to write" I have a few ideas:
-You don't have to get too personal but tell them what you've been up to.
-Tell them about something you have accomplished lately. (School, crafting, sewing, a book you read, etc)
-Tell them about something you might have started
-Tell them generally about your family (if they know them)
- Its still the beginning of the year....ask them how their new year has been so far.
-Ask them questions.
-Write about a past memory you made together
-Send them a newer picture of yourself or something they might enjoy
-Tell them you were thinking of them
-Keep it personal
-Don't force it to be a long email but it is OK if it is!
All this can also be used with Facebook messaging. Some of you might have 200+ friends. Write someone you haven't really been in touch with. See if everything is OK.
I have been thinking who I can write and my list gets longer and longer. Over the course of this week I need to write one or two emails a day and tell these people hello. ☺
If you have anything on Valentines you'd like to share (or a devotional we might enjoy) you can link up >here<.

Great idea! do you think i could do the same idea with texting people i wanted to keep in touch with but haven't the time?-Follower of Christ
ReplyDeleteSure texting works just as well! I would have thought about that if I had texting. :D Yeah, just text someone you haven't been in touch with in awhile!
