Where do we go from here?

While this is certainly not the first blog from my bed, this is definitely the first one from my phone. It's so crazy how connected to everything we've all become. My phone is this powerful tool that I rarely use to actually talk on. When I was 17 you couldn't get me to stop talking for hours on end to whatever friend happened to be free at the time. Now I'd prefer you to send me an email, find me on facebook or text me. When did true personal exchange go the way of the dodo? Our entire social structure has changed in such a profound way that it's hard not to analyze what it's done to us and our relationships.

Over the course of the last few months I've found myself really craving more than text can provide. There's this whole element that goes missing when you're not open to phone calls and when you find yourself closing off to making plans or having people over. I don't want to live in an anti-social world that has been so run over with social media that it's gone against the very thing it promoted to begin with!

I'm just unsettled right now. I feel as though I'm standing on the edge of something big and I'm not sure exactly what it is. I keep trying to force the answers but I know nothing about this is immediate. But god, sitting still and being patient is hard. All things happen for a reason but I'm ready to get a sneak peek into what's to come.
