Our desire for connection is valid and
worth honoring, but the best way to do this may be limiting time spent pursuing
digital connections in order to create space for face-to-face
relationships. There is something
mysteriously sacramental about spending time with someone through in-person
conversation devoid of expectation or distraction. When we open ourselves up to relationships
with others through our presence – and nothing else – we welcome a level of
vulnerability, which can then lead to real and authentic connectedness.
