face to face..............

what did we do for communication before, blogging, facebook, twitter..texting........the list goes on and on.......it makes me laugh...these days i don't seem to be able to resist a new form of communication....i hope i don't lose the ability to actually just sit across from someone .....making eye contact..... and sharing hearts......what do you think? ...i wonder do these new ways allow us to keep making our lives busier and busier cause we can do a quick tweet or update our blog in an attempt to build relationships and connect with others......as much as i enjoy all these new forms of expression that are ever shrinking the world ...i can't help shake the thought..'what is it going to look like for humanity in 50 years time'........will we become a people shut of from reality ......reaching out for contact through the good old www..... all the while desperately craving human contact instead of a blank screen....but unable to remember how ......i think we need to make sure we work hard to remain face to face as we get drawn deeper into this ever growing virtual world......
