The last weekend I quit watching TV (no more movies) and I quit Twitter. In regard to the social network, I enjoy reading the frustrations of the"couch activists". I thought: "What would happen if their combative hashtags change the world and I miss it? Soon there will be time for their unintentional humor." I went on and did not look back.
I spent the Sunday hanging around with my sisters. Awesome! It was very funny and I remembered the important things of the life. Now that I think about it, I was in a curious situation: because of the Amish restriction I made something that is commonly replaced by a message with a lot of emoticons. But we cannot always do everything, it is the fatality.
But, what if the Amish were right about the "evil telephones"? I understand that they see the telephones like a hindrance for the face-to-face communication. It is rude when you are talking to someone and this person does not stop of checking the cellphone. It is not about religion but manners.
That's nice, Benjamin. That's what we have to do these days: to get in touch physically.
