Relationships
Evolution Marches On
Smartphones
Are helping us to
Fine tune our
‘Impersonal’
Communication
Skills.They provide the
Perfect vehicle
To text, rather than
Talk,
Thereby eliminating
The need for
Verbal communication
With other
Human beings
In one fell swoop.Perhaps we will
Evolve
To develop larger
Thumbs
For lightning fast
Keyboard prowess,
While our
Vocal cords slowly
Wither away
And vanish.
It Has To Do With Point Of View
It’s all a matter of perspective.
What amounts to “small” talk…
A glib exchange of pleasantries…
For one person,
May constitute the only meaningful
Interaction of the day…
For another.
We shouldn’t be so quick to discount
The significance of our impact.
After all, many of the best things in life
Have “small” beginnings.
All Wrapped Up
Life is about
Creating shared history
With other people…
Weaving a thread
Of common experience
Year after year
Until a blanket
Of mutual comfort
Wraps you
In a friendship
So close
Either person
Can at any time
Pick right up
Where last you left off
Without missing a beat.
