Simple wisdom. It sounds so easy. Most easily overlooked. Most easily dismissed with a, “Yes, of course.” In our time, so many are only ever half present. They set the phone down between you and assure you they re only waiting for an important call; the plumber, the kids, a delivery, the staff, the boss. Even making love, the phone sits like a digital spirit on the bedside table, its alerts on, ready to chime in. The selfie kings and queens recording the moment, texting lick-by-lick accounts are clearly at an extreme but the grand irony is that at the time of maximum connection we are most alone even when we are together.
Cheers,
