They are all just a tap (on-the-screen) away, aren't they?
Look at the ease with which we can connect with friends and acquaintances.
There is no need to write letters, go to post office, buy stamps, stick them and post the letters.
No need to even make telephone calls.
There are non-intrusive messages that we can send: long or short or anything in between too.
But are we really making use of these easy communication tools to keep in touch with our friends and relatives?
In WhatsApp groups, I find more of monologues in the form of 'forwards', than conversations.
These groups are like people sitting in the same room. How odd it will be if no one spoke to one another.
Let us make use of technology to initiate conversations, share happiness and sorrows, and exchange views and ideas.
It's not difficult to break free of loneliness.
