I have noticed lately that we can go through our day and touch base with each other, but not spend quality time together. I have more opportunities to do this being home with the kids all day, but Dan being away at work and then coming home to more freelance work rarely gets to hang with the kids.
The message at church today was about getting connected. We first need to be connected to God and then we need to be connected with others. In this age of technology- we are less connected then ever. People will sit in a room and text each other without saying a word. My stepson would much rather text us then pick up the phone and have a conversation. I myself prefer a face to face conversation, but a phone call will do for those far away friends. I am afraid though that our kids are being encouraged to interact less with each other and more with a machine.
