I was thinking today about how disconnected we all are now. In a lot of ways, technology allows for anyone to connect with anyone. My housemate is in China, and I saw his face this weekend. We email regularly. I click a button, and 5 seconds later, a letter is transferred to the other side of the world. Connected.
But at the same time, in person, everyone is so cold and detached. Walking along the path at Calvin today, I'd wager that at least 50% of the people were plugged into their iPod. Texting on their Blackberry. Avoiding the eyes of others. Disconnected.
Is this the kind of life we should be leading?
