Family is the compass that guides us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights and our comfort when we occasionally falter. In the pandemic especially for you guys who works far away from home and loses your job after the company retrenched workers, unable to gather with families and talk to them about it face-to-face will let you down even more.
Video chatting can be a full experience, and while nothing is a substitute for being in the same room with someone. By using apps like FaceTime (for iOS), Skype, Facebook Messenger, and Zoom, staying in touch is easier unlike the older days.
Social interaction really benefits our health and well-being. It is important to maintain relationships and stay connected with your friends and family. Spending quality time with your friends and family will promote a sense of safety, belonging, and security. It also helps you in staying motivated during the hard times by talking to them, letting your emotions out and sharing mutual experiences.
