I do love the SNUGness of well-timed, succinct electronic communication. What a miraculous thing. It keeps us plugged in on a lonely day in Spring-gray Seattle. It's also why Obama's in the White House (ask Voter Action)!
At the same time, I hear about loneliness ... the kind that comes with quip-heavy, humorous, cool responses to one another, done without ever seeing a face (amusing sometimes / detached at others). Do we get that way of responding through better short & to-the-point electronic responses? Ooops. Maybe. So, once again, I am getting on my phone-people-and-set-dates horse, ready to re-immerse myself in a friend's smile (or tears) and bathe in that variety of humanity. The two work so well together. I just find the latter harder to pull off these days. Maybe it's just me? People are worried about the economy; I get that. And then there's that temptation to pull in, and do things solo (when tense, isolate & self nurture). But, as a smart acquaintance said today, even the Lone Ranger had Tonto. Here's to tending-to Tonto. Comments are closed.
