Staying connected

We are living in a time when communication is at an all-time high. By that I mean, there was a time when one would take pen, ink and parchment, carefully script out a letter, roll it, bind it and deliver it to the post. After sorting, it would be given to a person with a fast horse who would then mount and ride as fast as they could to the ultimate destination of the letter. As you might imagine, many days would go by before that letter was read by its recipient -- if they got it at all.

Now, one can bang out an instant message on the computer and bingo, two are chatting back and forth. Then, of course there is email and cell phones that make it easy to stay in contact with others. And yet, it seems to me that people are more "dis-connected" than ever before. How much real communication gets done?

Since, I have struggled with PPS, it has become extremely difficult for me to walk. I get around with the use of a cane (I am still stubborn about the wheelchair or scooter idea) and it is a long and laborious project for me to get out of the car and all the way inside of a restaurant or other place of business. The result is that I tend to stay in and work on the computer rather than getting out as much as before. My connections and relationships have suffered as a result. I have found it important, however, to force my self to stay in touch. To keep up relationships with old friends and business associates.

It is summer and not a good time to be talking about campfires and fireplaces, but here I go anyway. Have you ever noticed how quickly a burning log dies out when it gets separated from the pile? Take a poker and move it over closer to the others and it rekindles into flame again.

You get the message. Don't go it alone. Even in internet marketing, there are people out there who will mentor and work with you. It is good to belong to some kind of network just for the connections and feedback and relationships you will develop.

In the Bible it says, "Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend." Proverbs 27:17. Finally, don't forget the spiritual side of it. You are essentially a spiritual being that needs that spiritual connection with your creator. Take the time daily to connect with God and you will be a far more productive person the rest of the day.
