It is easy when one is very involved in work & when leisure time seems nonexistent to neglect friends. I have benefitted from the writings of Richard Swenson, a physician who has concern for the lack of margin we Americans have in our lives. "Progress" brought about by work-saving devices have not resulted in relaxed life style. We are driven by the culture rarely making time for friends. As I am trying to put a retirement life together, one area of emphasis is to reconnect with people. I know that this can be a ministry; God will provide that for you in time.
