I-Phones

I-phones have changed our paradigms
People no longer
Have to talk to each other
Or
Need to form relationships with human beings.
Evolving into an electronic virtual culture,
Suddenly we live in a surreal, imitation world, and we are avatars, not humans.

Do we really exist or is this some glitch in the Holodeck program? Oh well, another "fav".

Thank you M.L. I cannot get over the fact that phones have replaced conversations and people.

This is a very weird phenomena to me... I am resisting the technology as long as possible! ;P

I have it, I use it, but I know when to do "real people" instead.

I feel like an avatar some days; like I am not really here at all any more.

I wanted to write an acrostic about I-phones because I noticed today in a meeting where we were asked not to use them, pick them up, glance at them under the table, etc, about half the people kept theirs on the table anyway.
