Cellular Disconnect
It used to be God who had the whole world in his hands. Today, we've got the whole world in our own hands.
We look down. Out heads held low. Can't even see what is right in front of us. We can't even see what is lying on the ground. We don't focus_ two feet beyond our nose.
What we are concerned with, is in our grasp. We look into our world, squinting and thumbing.
It holds our life, our world. We live inside of it, hidden from the true world around us.
It is our shallow viewpoint that doesn't allow us to see. Did you not see me? I was right next to you. Did you know that I was there? Did you know I took your picture?
No, probably not. I did not even exist for you. Nothing exists outside your palm.
Where is the nearest bank? Did your phone not tell you its right behind you? Your eyes could have.
Can you not see the city around you? Why do you need directions to find your way around? Just look around.
Hey look up! Look who is next to you? Is your future love standing right next to you? Or is your future love only in your palm?
You do not see me almost run into you.
You do not see the beauty.
You do not see everyone else acting just like you.
You do not see yourself, just a blue dot.
You're missing out on all the sights. You're view is 3" wide, my view goes for miles! You might not be able to see this, but I can. I see you.
You do not see the birds, just angry birds. You cannot even see me standing beside you. You cannot hear me. I do not exist. This must be the best type of camouflage.
What are you looking at? Sports scores, directions, emails, Facebook? Are you trying to find your next stop? I will tell you. STOP…looking down! You think you are watching the world, but look up! The world is watching you!
