Thank you, Christian, for this beautiful writing. It is very timely, indeed. I love to reblog it. Thank you!
Too far apart
Published by auntyuta
Auntie, Sister. Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Mother and Wife of German Descent I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com View all posts by auntyuta

People who live in the same neighborhood or community always have common interests, despite their ideological differences. They all need safe food, clean water, sewage service and passable roads. When they start working together on these issues, they discover their commonalities – and find they aren’t nearly so far apart as they imagined.
I read that post Uta and left a comment.
A very thought provoking post, it left me feeling rather sad, Sad to think we have succumbed to technology to the extent, we have lost perspective of life and our existence.
I appreciate your thoughts and post, may I recommend you visit a friend of mine on Word press, Sue, she goes by the name Dreamwalker.
Dear Ian, I left the following comment on one of Sue’s blogs:
Dear Sue, you say: ” . . . I have dipped in and out of WP and for once not felt guilty to the many posts I know others have published that I have missed.. And I stopped feeling guilty I hadn’t posted.. And I have breathed in deeper and Sighed out even louder at the Freedom I have felt from the shift within. . . . .”
I did a reblog of a post by Christian Mihai:

I would think not everyone has totally succumbed to technology, however far too many people do not seem to have a choice, no choice at all. I totally agree that early retirement, if at all possible, should be the way to go.
I loved to read your thoughts on this,dear Sue. We, the people are not machines and should have ample time for reflection and to commute with people in the neighbourhood.
This is Sue’s blog that I responded to:

Very true poignant response Uta
Thanks, Ian. for your recommendation. It was great to meet up with Sue. She is an inspiration.
Cheerio, Uta 🙂
Thank you Uta for leading me to this blog you reposted.. I appreciate it.. I left this comment upon their blog
Wonderful thoughts. Cristian . ( I came via a reblog of your post.. )
You finished your insightful post with these words.
“There are so many of us, and yet on some days it seems we can’t reach a single soul.”..
It may often feel like that.. Yet if we reach just ONE soul who is made to feel better by our words, then to me we have bridged that gap, as we unite each other with our words..
Love and Blessings in all you do.
Sue
Thank you also Uta.. for uniting us across the distances.. wishing you a wonderful day.. Hugs Sue ❤
Thank you so much, Sue. I like this response of yours to Christian: ” . . . if we reach just ONE soul who is made to feel better by our words, then to me we have bridged that gap, as we unite each other with our words.”
Hugs back! Uta 🙂
