Out of touch with ourselves

With our cell phones and PDA’s we are now able to be in touch with anyone and everyone at any time.

In the process, we run the risk of never being in touch with ourselves.

Reblogged this on Meaning Mindfulness and Non-Violence and commented:
…and in the words of Viktor Frankl, perhaps the malaise of our times in not finding/creating/discovering/unfolding meaning, which is already there, just waiting to be discovered.

Or another human being. A have witness two youne adults sitting beside one another conversing, well texting each other.

We seem to be getting away from this moment, the ability to connect by looking another person in the eyes.

Sad, we have come so far, but maybe not in the right direction for peace and happiness.

Sorry about the autocorrect another screen time invention,
