Moving to a new community recently and not having friendly faces around is bothering me a lot these days.. Kept thinking what would be the best way to introduce myself to my neighbors. May be make some cookies and take along with me... or may be invite them over for milk and cookies to my place. Or how about a barbeque and get to know some of the faces around. Or rather complement somebody on their lawn or plants outside their home and start having a small talk. I kept thinking I should go to gym, so that I meet some of the people around the community. However it was all thinking and no implementing. Well there could be thousands of ways to do this ice breaking session.. And i was lost among all of these for quite sometime now. It is so important to have a friendly neighbor than a distant close relative. Neighbors could be reached out first in case of emergency.
Finally the day came for some action. I had gone out and when I came back, decided to knock my neighbor's door. Ting Tong. And there she was. Just a 5 minutes conversation but was good to finally be able to break the ice.
Looking forward to making friends in the community!!! Hoping for the better.
Looks like the coming summer will have lesser ice to thaw :) Have fun with new friends ;)
