Day 16 – Cook/Eat with the Family
Your Daily Activation:
Cook/Eat with the Family!
Every Saturday, my father would break out the hibachi and grill food for us. It was a weekly ritual that I realize I have lost because I am always Cooking for The People. They say that one of the things that happy people, across the board have, is close connections to friends and family.
Today, nurture a connection today with someone important to you purely for it’s own sake . Give them a call or pay a visit, if you can. Cook together. Eat Together. Go on a walk. Have fun together. Or make plans for another time if you can’t do it today.
The good people at pbs have a lot to say about this: http://www.pbs.org/thisemotionallife/topic/connecting
And here is a video to remind you of how fluid the definition of family can be, if we let it.
