In a wireless world that is fast shrinking - we are forever looking for something. Emails, messages, free wireless networks etc.
This was a good reminder...
Because no matter how much we are connected with all the software around us, we need the hardware more. We need the people, the hugs, the hands, the pats and the words. Internet has brought the world closer in many ways but it has also taken us apart in subtle ways. Like when two people sitting together choose to spend time on their phones and tablets trying to stay in touch with people across the world than with each other. Like when people choose to leave a book behind and take the computer instead only to end up spending time waiting for the facebook and twitter feeds to change.
This was a good reminder...
For all of us to stop searching and to talk to the person next to us. :)
Because sometimes that is all you need. And at some other times that is the start of something big and wonderful...
