Families do not live close to each other, which can be frustrating at times. Often siblings, cousins, parents, and dear relatives are dispersed around the country.

Our whirlwindle makes it easy to get caught up in today's whirlwindery. We often lose touch with our relatives. National Visit Your Relatives Day invites us to take a moment and spend some much-needed time to visit those relatives we care about. For those we haven't seen or talked to for a while, life is much too short not to make time for family.

We are now able to connect with loved ones who live far away with today's technology. Our lives are made simpler by technology, almost as if our families are right beside us. We have the ability to share our lives in realtime thanks to the use of modern technology.
