"Sweet readers, do you have a friend (or two) you&amp;amp;#8217;ve lost touch with? I&amp;amp;#8217;m not talking about a fall out&amp;amp;#8212;but maybe you&amp;amp;#8217;ve both found yourselves super busy these days. If so, I&amp;amp;#8217;ve got a fun little challenge for you this weekend.Reach out to this pal just to say hello. And I don&amp;amp;#8217;t mean by sending an email or a message on Facebook. Pick up the phone and give your pal a call. There&amp;amp;#8217;s something so personal about actually hearing someone&amp;amp;#8217;s voice on the other end of the phone. Earlier this week, a friend I&amp;amp;#8217;ve not spoken to in months (she travels quite a bit) called me and, honestly, speaking with her on the phone was one of the highlights of my week! I think after awhile, it can feel kind of awkward to chat up a friend you&amp;amp;#8217;ve lost touch with. But that&amp;amp;#8217;s the beauty of speaking with a long lost friend like this. You two will have so much to catch up that there will hardly be any seconds when neither is talking! As I was gossiping with my friend, I was shocked when I noticed that nearly an hour had passed since I picked up the phone. My dears, will any of you be taking on this friendly challenge? Do you have a friend (or two) you&amp;amp;#8217;ve lost touch with? Has a long lost friend ever called you out of the blue just to chat? How did it make you feel?
