It happens to all of us. You’re right in the middle of something – maybe eating dinner or watching a great movie – when the phone rings. Obviously, everyone should know how busy you are. It must be important.

So you jump up to answer. Before grabbing the phone, you sneak a quick peek to make sure it’s someone you actually want to talk to. You quickly learn that the caller is … a complete mystery.

We all have people who are no longer part of our lives. People we miss, and think about all the time.

At PeopleFinders, we believe it’s never too late to reconnect with people from your past. That’s why we’re issuing the People Finding Challenge. We’re urging you to start your own people finding adventure so you can reunite with family, friends and anyone else.

March 29th, 2012

Ever had a falling out with a good friend, significant other or family member? One that was so bad you both agreed to go your separate ways?

You probably thought about that person a lot, even after many years apart. You may have often wished that things could be different. And you might have decided that it was just too late.

April 2 is National Reconciliation Day. It’s a day when people are encouraged to put the past behind them, reach out and make amends.

A recent study revealed that most people have some pretty significant regrets. Of course. We all have things form our past that we wish we could change.

This study produced a list of Top Ten regrets. It didn’t hold many surprises. Though we come from wildly different backgrounds, we all share common experiences.

The study concluded that most people spend at least 45 minutes dwelling on their personal regrets every week. No surprise there, either. We can’t help thinking about things that went wrong in the past, and inadvertently torturing ourselves by pondering what we should have done differently.

Number 6 on the list of regrets really caught our attention. It’s something that many of us at PeopleFinders think about each day:

We’ve all been there. We’ve all had to make an important decision about someone. It could be a friend we’ve known for years, someone we just met or even a relative.

Of course we want to make the best decision possible. We want to do what’s right for everyone involved, including ourselves, our friends and our family. But sometimes it can be difficult to know what to do. Sometimes we wish we had more facts to help us make better informed decisions.

Celebrate Your Name In 2012

February 29th, 2012

How often do you think about your own name? That may seem like an odd question, but the first week of March is Celebrate Your Name Week. It’s seven days to ponder the importance of your personal moniker.

The concept of Celebrate Your Name Week was created by Jerry Hill in 1997. He encourages people to take time to learn more about their own name – and the names of others.

At PeopleFinders, we think names are very important. They are our personal titles. They help us build our sense of identity. And they help us identify, associate and reconnect with the people who share our world. So, we proudly present an updated version of our own Celebrate Your Name article, and encourage you to learn a little more about names this March.
