Most people would rather hurt themselves than be quiet and alone in their thoughts.
Cathleen, I enjoy the inspirational material you post on FTT. Thank you.
As one whom needs no ‘smart’ phone, I see the images portrayed in this video every waking hour.
Iv seen people cry because their phone is broke and will take a few days to get it fixed. Iv seen people become violent because their computer has crashed and they lost the contents.
This world is sad. Which is funny because it isnt the world that is truly sad as much as the beings within it. Poor little beings. We have outsmarted ourselves into a retarded-looking form of slavery. see you on the other side.
Nottoobitter … this video hits home with me because when I’m around people who have their face planted on a smartphone, I know I’m being ignored and the message to me is they think I don’t have anything important to say.
Or, when I go out for a (sit down) bite to eat, inevitably there will be a couple sitting near by and one or the other is on their freaking phone and ignoring the other person.
How ’bout a party of four? Anyone notice that they are not communicating with each other at all during the entire meal? How sad our society has become!

Every time I do, I see chemtrails.
Me too … plus I get dizzy at my age. There she goes … she fell right over. 😆
OMG!!!

Wow, this guy nailed it.
Thanks cathleen. Got a little tear in me eye, aye! Think I’ll go pet the cat….
Gosh…It’s almost like telling you’re kids, “Alright! I’m going off to war.” and then you’re kids, without looking up from their I-pads and cellphones and showing no emotion, say, “Ok Dad. See you later.”
So sad.
