The scary thing is if people believe that what they have to say to people they may or may not know is more important than what they could be saying to people in their presence. I suppose it has to do with priorities doesn’t it? There’s NOW, and then there’s LATER. There’s the bone in the hand, and the one reflected in the pond.
It’s simply scary these new fashion for no conversation and these days people certainly feel it’s more important talking to those online than the people around them.
What a fantastic picture this is!

I think so too. Technology has isolated humans from their world in the process of “advancing” civilisation.

This picture is so true. With technology in the way, some people have gotten away from talking without the use of devices.
