Welcome to the Future!!

Greetings to all!!!! I pray the day is treating you well. Here we are in 2009, almost 2010 and all I have to say is WELCOME TO THE FUTURE!!! I recently discovered Facebook. I am sure any of you reading this blog are very aware of what Facebook is, so I won't go into details. I have connected with people I haven't seen or talked to in years!! It is great to see pictures of their families, get updates on their lives and have a tool to connect to the masses all at once. But I must caution you.....as we move forward in the 21st century and we benefit from the convenience of email, Facebook, MySpace, and the Internet in general, don't forget about the human touch. It may be easier to send an email, but how thoughtful is it to send a hand-written letter? We may be more likely to send an update on FB, but let's remember to pick up the phone and call. I have encouraged you before to stop and smell the roses, well I encourage you (and myself) to stop and write a letter to someone you love and/or pick up the phone and call a friend. The sound of a voice or an unexpected piece of mail will really go a long way. Welcome to the Future, but don't completely let go of the past. Love you all!!!
