Message from the Directress
Didn’t we just say how time flies that it’s already 2015 and yet as you are reading this, the first month is already over? Our new year traditions often include making new plans and resolutions by looking forward to all those new possibilities that we can embrace. But perhaps, it would also be nice to look forward by “looking back” to some of the things we used to do more. These are probably things that the changes around us have made to be more challenging for our families lately but are actually worth fighting for. These include but are not limited to committing to family dinner (despite our varying schedules or workloads or the usual rush hour traffic), discovering a new place and in effect letting our children discover some new interests, enjoying some offline, traditional board games at home, or spending a weekend afternoon doing an old family recipe together. We get the picture.
Today, there seems to be more time and more connectivity because of gadgets and technology but we also seem to long for more person-to-person connection and do meaningful things that can truly last especially for our families.
And so from all of us in Meridian to your individual homes, may 2015 be a year of new goals and plans but may it also be one that ushers in more meaningful and deeper connections with our loved ones.
-Directress Elo Quiambao
