Day 1457: So connected Yet So Disconnected

In a time when it is so easy to connect we are more disconnected from each other than ever before– that’s what I keep realizing.

 

It’s 12 : 35 PM on day 1457 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, go back to bed, pray, read Psalm 145,   publish my Disability of the Day feature,  stretch my hamstrings, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles, feed myself a peanut butter and banana sandwich  for breakfast, spend time outside – being in nature makes you feel so small and makes you realize the big things you’re going through aren’t so big after all 🙂 – have a feet message and read Tension grows between Palestinian Authority and Hamas – this situation in Gaza would make a great movie if it wasn’t so tragic all the leaders over there need to grow up fast.

 

This morning I was thinking about the fact that in a time when it is so easy to connect we are more disconnected from each other than ever before nowadays when most people want to communicate with you they either do so via Facebook or text message whatever happened to picking up the phone and calling someone or just visiting maybe it’s just me but I believe there is no substitute for actual human interaction.
