【Share】Creating new social connections in your life
|
|||
|
Over time, social bonds can be broken. Older adults often face a time when close friends and relatives die. That's why it's important to grasp opportunities to expand your social circle and deepen ties you've already made: If you normally wait for others to reach out, pick up the phone and propose a date. Make a difference in someone's life. Explore some of the many volunteer opportunities available, from wielding tools to spruce up affordable housing to mentoring a child or businessperson. Consider rejoining the work force. AARP lists employers who tend to be senior-friendly and has tips on buffing up your skills when searching for work. Besides bolstering your finances—which might be necessary—a job can offer opportunities to connect with others. Harness the warmer side of technology. E-mail and telephones extend our reach around the world. Libraries and senior centers may offer free online time and may even help you set up a free e-mail account. Find like-minded individuals through organizations or hobbies that interest you. Local newspapers are a good source of this information. Return to the classroom. Learn a new skill, brush up on an old one, or pursue a passion. Local colleges and adult education centers offer up a variety of new experiences—from learning to sail to studying art history to finding out how to make the perfect crème brûlée. |
