So Close, Yet So Far

    Where am I? What am I doing? If you're one of my 500 friends online, you'll always be the first to know. My phone and laptop are never out of touching distance, so I'm constantly posting updates on social media—whether I'm having a coffee, on my way to school, watching TV… even when I'm in the shower. I have a never-ending flow of messages and updates from all the people I associate with online.

    I live in a university dorm with a couple of great roommates. Yet the truth of the matter is: I feel lonely. A few days ago, I went out for a dinner get-together with some friends. My best friend left the table for 30 minutes because he had to take a call. Some spent the dinner bent over their phones, texting friends online but ignoring the one who sat right in front of them. And the extraordinary thing is no one thought this was rude; it's just how life is nowadays.
