Wake Up and See Each Other

We are slaves to our pricey devices.  They come with strings not in even the finest print.  They replace books, theaters and actual human interaction and we pay hundreds of dollars for the privledge of being lead to further transition into robots for the machine.

It seems we need to stop focusing on the anger that comes from technological numbness and slow down to really see each other.
We allow ourselves to rush through process, placated and controlled by our technological toys  and are then surprised when people feel isolated and angry.
Focusing on the anger as the problem, labeling it as metal illness, is a mistake and allows the root of a much greater problem to flourish.
In general, we are not seeing or truly interacting with each other nearly enough and those are needs just as crucial as food, air and water.
 If someone did not eat and died we'd say it was from starvation not physical illness.  We are robbing ourselves of the basic need of real human interaction on essential core levels and then medicating and labeling those that react to it with emotional and psychological hunger.  We are watching each other whither of starvation and all we need is humanity. love and non-franken food to thrive....
Will we rise to that occasion or turn into a business that thrives on apathy?
