Contacts

Sometimes, electronic closeness amazes me.

Sitting here on a quiet Sunday morning, I'm aware of family tensions in a family I've never met, in a country I've never visited, near a continent I've never been to  -- all because I know one member of the family, and we talk a lot.  I would bet that people there would be astonished to learn that their lives are, at least a little, known to someone on the other side of the world.

Or maybe just me?
