You're so right - we're soooo lucky to live with technology that makes the distances seem so much smaller.

Thank you for your visits and comments, Debbie. I am sorry I have not been by much, (although I read every post of yours. Hehehehe!). I love this illustration.<br /><br />Ah, the Internet! Yes, Good and bad. if we just focus on the good and be careful and prudent, it is worth its weight in gold in bringing us close to our loved ones from far away. Like you, I left my birth country. Internet, blogging, Facebook, text messaging, email all brings us close together. I was driving to work one day with my brother-in-law and the clouds were so beautiful. I snapped a photo with my camera, shared it with my brother in Manila and in a few minutes, he sends me a comment or reply. It's as if he just lived near and not 13,000 miles away.<br /><br />Thank you again. I hope you have a very lovely week!
