In so many ways this is all so true! But, at the end of the line there are real humans (maybe) pulling the strings. Until they invent a robot that can do that for us too ...lol Very well said.
Humorous. I like the title. In a way I can relate this to reality. We are real people behind our screens here, but so much of "relationship" over the internet is superficial, flat. It doesn't carry the dimension that face-to-face interaction does.

ReplyDeleteAgree...you can hide behind the pen but not behind the face.

ReplyDeleteExactly...we do not know .
Deletea lot of us do!
ReplyDeleteThis was clever and current~ I loved how you did this :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Ella.
DeleteHa ha, you've got a point!
