RE: Appropriate places to text message
This is the world we now inhabit...how sad. Gone are the days when kids played outdoors until the sun set or mom called us to dinner. I was an adult learner in 2010 getting a bachelors degree and I can't forget the college hallways as I walked to class. Almost every student was pajama clad walking head down into their phones. Zombie apocalypse begun.
Agreed. I lament the loss of the “old days” where life seemed simpler. I don’t have anything against technology but there’s a time and place. People think they’re so connected but in reality I feel people have never been more disconnected than they are now.
I agree that people are disconnected more today than in the past. Having grown up in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s in an Italian - Catholic neighborhood on Long Island, NY, I remember what an organic community of human beings looks like. Life was family, friends, neighbors, and your Church parish.
America’s last Presidential race was dominated by investigations into emails of one candidate and the Tweets of the other. This shit will be the end of us.
I concur. I didn't grow up in NY but the small town in which I was raised sounds like it was quite similar in its values. Shit is all out of whack at the moment with no sign of it getting on track. I lament the loss of the old days.
