Twitter. Facebook. Pinterest. Linked In....all ways that we connect with each other in a virtual way, sharing our interests, our stories, our lives with each other. And they work. To an extent.
The truth is, though, we need personal, face-to-face connection. We are wired to connect with each other. And "virtual" simply isn't a substitute. There's something about looking another in the eye and sharing life in a flesh and blood kind of way that is mystical, magical, holy--something that can't be replicated, duplicated, replaced.
I'm thinking and feeling that the world could use a little more of this kind of interaction these days. I know I could.
