Replacements...

The internet has replaced personal relationships. Once there was a time, when you had to physically interact with a person to have a relationship. To build that relationship...Now you can just sit in your comfortable chair, have a cup of coffee and pull up your email or a personal blog, and VOILA...you are connected. You feel like you are a part of that person or persons life. You feel like you belong. But you don't. You are looking through a one way mirror. You can see us, but we can't see you. It is still only one sided. You feel like you really are at a cheer competition, or a school play. You have a front row seat to the baseball game. You saw her blow out her birthday candles. You can watch them grow up. You feel like your not missing a thing. But you are. What would happen, if it all went away?

I show you what I want you to see. You see only what you want to know. There is so much more.
