I love FaceTime. Seeing and hearing from friends makes the world a kinder and more comforting place. \u00a0It&#8217;s easy to get caught in an endless cycle of busy. But maintaining and deepening relationships takes time and regular contact.<\/p>\n<p>And I don&#8217;t mean virtual\u00a0connection. I mean sharing secrets, confidences, questions, and other little intimacies that have no place in public forums. So I pick up the phone. It&#8217;s important. \u00a0Call your mother! Call your siblings. Call your friends. They want to hear from you. \u00a0And if they don&#8217;t, find a circle of adopted family and friends who do. \u00a0It will make their day and yours!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#MondayMusings &#8211; Pick up the Phone!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14356,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[114],"tags":[25,26,27,28,30,31,32,33,115,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42],"class_list":["post-10394","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-monday-musings","tag-character","tag-characters","tag-emotional-toolbox","tag-etb","tag-film","tag-films","tag-laurie-hutzler","tag-movies","tag-musings","tag-nine-character-types","tag-screenplay","tag-screenplays","tag-screenwriting","tag-script","tag-scripts","tag-scriptwriting","tag-tv","tag-writing"],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends.jpg",1200,800,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-768x512.jpg",768,512,true],"large":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-1024x683.jpg",1024,683,true],"ttshowcase_normal":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-125x83.jpg",125,83,true],"ttshowcase_small":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-75x50.jpg",75,50,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends.jpg",1200,800,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends.jpg",1200,800,false],"Image Size 500x500":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-500x500.jpg",500,500,true],"woocommerce_thumbnail":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-300x400.jpg",300,400,true],"woocommerce_single":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-600x400.jpg",600,400,true],"woocommerce_gallery_thumbnail":["https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/things-to-do-with-friends-100x100.jpg",100,100,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Laurie Hutzler","author_link":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/author\/admin\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"#MondayMusings - Pick up the Phone!","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10394"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10394"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10394\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14356"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10394"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10394"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etbscreenwriting.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10394"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
