How sad to think that the term
“friend” is now most often associated with a web-based platform. If the electronic
plug is pulled the friends will be gone…and then what?
Pathways in the earth, worn in
the soil of life, those pathways can only be erased with great difficulty – if at
all. But electronic friendship? Friendship that is turned on and off by the
click of a mouse? There will be little, if any, trace of that friendship in the
years to come.
True friendship is wrought as
ironwork is wrought, in the fires of life – it takes more than an electronic
switch to give it life or death.
May I just click "like" as I do on Facebook?
