I opened Facebook this morning and was reminded of another source of satisfaction from the trip I just led. There were notifications from many of the participants, “friending” each other.
There is a core of people who participate in many of our events, which is common in most activities. Then, there are the beginners who hesitate to stick their toes in the water. They have qualms about having adequate skills and/or just fitting in.
But, the group reaches out and makes them feel welcomed. What I see on Facebook confirms what I saw happening on the trip. They didn’t just enjoy the experiences of the trip. They made new friends and became part of the gang. Out of many, one. It’s a good thing.
