Connection

Connection isn’t the problem; we have more ways to connect than at any point in history.

The problem is not connection. It’s time. We don’t allow it to unfold nearly enough.

Deep, meaningful conversations remain buried beneath the constant traffic of brief, convenient interactions.

A post, a reaction, a share, a reply … these don’t quite compare to what happens during a two-hour walk with friends, or an open-ended afternoon, or an evening on the back porch sharing stories.

Often, we’re so quick to connect that we forget: connection doesn’t like to be rushed.
