Things That Make Me Smile

holidaySkype and Google Hangout.

Wait, hear me out before you laugh.

I’m a Foreign Service Brat. When I was growing up, I didn’t get to see my extended family much because we lived so far, and then when my parents were overseas once I was grown, I couldn’t afford to go see them. First Connectix video chats, and now that we live in many places, Skype and Google Hangouts, allow us to chat and see each other at the same time so we don’t lose touch with the little things. It’s not the same as a phone call because you can laugh when someone makes a funny face, and you can see when they need some bucking up even if they keep it out of their voice.

Today is Christmas (a time for gathering whether you celebrate the religious holiday or not), and so many of us live distant from family and friends. Don’t let the distance keep you from sharing your smile.
