Leaving It Behind...

I realized this morning while reading over a few of my previous posts, that while it may seem like most of my friends from high school have moved on with their lives, many of them feel the way I have over the past few months. I learned that perhaps, instead of waiting for that phone call, message, text, or chat on the internet, I should be the one to re-instigate the friendship lines, and re-connect with those people...
People like me are afraid to step out and be the change. I have pretty much always been that way, but as a result of a simple experiment, I have found that many people are kind of waiting for everyone else to say the first word and re-establish the companionship that once existed.
So, I've made up my mind to throw caution to the wind and just go for things. What's the worst that can happen?
