Isn'T It Ironic

Don't you find it ironic? Isn't it ironic? As time progresses, this baby boomer generation has been exposed to radio, newspapers, magazines. Each media touched our minds and ears early on with it came inspiration and emotion as the world was changing and evolving. Then with education, time and knowledge came the television, space exploration, modern technology expanding personal computers,cds, dvds, laptops, tablets, cell phones. Now, we are blinded, oblivious and drowning in its ease and the lack of face to face communication within us lies the desire to find quiet and escape this false communion. Today, I turned off the tv, the radio, the laptop, the cell to see you face to face, to speak and touch you to find the reality that surely exists between us. For a moment Stop! Stop texting, twittering and tweeting, shut down you phone, close your tablet, find your true voice and speak to me, face to face once again.
