There comes to points in your life or travelling when things come up back home and you are unsure what to do. This post will be rather vague as I don't know all the details or if I did would not want to share them. Unless you are there it can be hard to tell how bad things are or how badly someone was hurt or how their health is all you can do is wait for more information to come your way. You end up feeling useless and helpless because there is nothing you can do when you are several thousand kms away and trying to contact you don't know how or when to because you can't simply pickup your phone.
What I find frustrating in my old life was the lack of communication sure we have skype, facebook, smart phones etc etc but we all would rather email or text. I mean when was the last time you called someone instead of emailing or texting it is the communication age yet we are losing all of our ability to communicate. It shouldn't come as a surprise to most of you that I rather dislike email and texts yes I do them but in reality I could live without it. How many emails will you guys receive today and how many of them are chains of chains although some are needed for the CYA (cover your ass). Just do me a favour and look through your contact list of friends and family and give them a call, or next time you are out with people put your phone away, next time you get an email at the office go over to their desk and talk to them and most importantly call your mom, your dad, or your kids and just talk to them and let them know how much you love or care for them,
