Connectivity

He called from LAX. I could hear the guy next to him talking about his Petty Officers more clearly than I could hear my husband on his cell phone! Fifteen hours later, he called on his cell from Sydney. The reception was clear as a bell. Modern communication is awesome. And changing. And a new system to learn. Last year we were on webcam. I found that to be emotional. There is something hard for me about seeing the person but not being able to be together. Facebook is a little bit like that for me, as well. I find the photos of family and friends draw out an emotional response that e-mail alone doesn't. At the same time, I wouldn't trade that ability to see the people who are far from me! 7/7/09
