I know exactly what you mean. Basically, people have become zombies controlled by their smartphones.

I remember, towards the beginning of the smartphone craze, while I was inside a Wal-mart, and there were two teen-age girls walking past me, and I was astounded by what I was hearing. They were talking to each other, but via their smartphones. They were right next to each other, no more than 2 feet from each other. Nowadays, people text each other, not only when they’re miles from each other, but also when actually sitting and facing each other in a room.

The world’s gone mad.

Now, I just noticed something else.... about YOU.

Are you a writer or novelist? What you wrote sounds like it came straight out of a novel. If you’re not, you should consider becoming a writer.

I know. It is crazy, isn’t it?

My wife were at a hotel, and there was a family, husband, wife, kids, all there with their phones...

I swear they were texting each other!

One of the reasons I love FR is that I can write, but you know how that goes...when you write like that the post tends to be longer, and people don’t read it...:) I battle that, but...sometimes, I gotta just let it all out! Thank you for that compliment!

When I do write my book, you will be on the ping list!
