There's been an effort to increase communication lines for hundreds of years...
It used to take days to connect with another person ... Now it takes less than a second to send a text message.
The problem is these lines of communication distract us from the people around us - our family, our neighbours.
You likely know more about people halfway across the world than the people who live next door to you.
This is not a good thing.
The effort to maximize communication lines has resulted in us neglecting communicating with family and others in our area... It hasn't improved communication at all.. Just changed it...
