Curate, connect, and discover
A thought I just had. Being with people does not have to be a performance. My sister and I, we do chores and errands together and that counts as hanging out, because we still get to enjoy each other's company. I love it when my friends call and we're talking while living our day to day lives, doing chores, or doing one of our hobbies. I love it when I'm at a person's house and we go to the mailbox together, or make dinner together, or wash dishes together between our 'adventures'. No one's immune to the flow of time and the necessity of the day-to-day, however grand a getaway may be. You don't have to impress me. If you're my friend, you've already won. And I hope other people feel that way about their friends too.
