Jeff,
Great post, man. So glad I took an extra minute today from my to-do list to “see you”.

Thanks for sharing your heart and for taking the time to “see” me, too.

Jeff – as you know – I agree whole heartedly with your premise here. Constant trivial distraction is not what makes us healthy, happy, or whole. Distraction makes us divided which makes it impossible to go deep with anyone….and STAY there.
The greatest spiritual leaders all agree on one discipline: from the Bible to Buddha: Regularly sit in absolute stillness and silence.

Why????

Because we can’t “see” anyone else, until we “see” ourselves.

Wonderful! You managed to elaborate with much more detail, in an almost scientific way, on some of the point on my silly blog. I actually thought the lack of conversations was particular to my current situation out of the cyber-life. There are quite a few specific factors, events, and adversities that led me to wake up one day and discover I was pretty much isolated. Then, on top of that, social media evolved to what it’s today, which you accurately described in this blog. Yes, we are not seeing each other.

Now, maybe it’s not just me the only one missing conversations. I could be general social phenomenon. If it is, then it’s a very interesting one.

Thanks for mentioning me on your blog!
